How courts have described this case

Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.

• explaining that a charge filed with an agency that has a worksharing agreement with the EEOC is deemed to have been received by the EEOC on the same day
• explaining that under worksharing agreements between EEOC and some state agencies, when a charge is filed with the state agency before the 300-day filing deadline expires, it is deemed automatically filed with the EEOC on that same day
• Prohibiting any remedy to claimants who file discrimination complaints with an appropriate state or federal agency within the 300-day deadline is entirely at odds with the purpose of the worksharing agreement and with Title VII
• Nevada is a “deferral state” in which claimants have 300 days to institute proceedings with them state anti-discrimination agency
• “Like other worksharing agreements, the one between Nevada and the EEOC provides that each agency designates the 23 other as its agent for the purpose of receiving charges.”
• “As Nevada is a deferral state and Laquaglia first instituted proceedings 15 with its antidiscrimination agency, the district court wrongly concluded that her filing deadline 16 was only 180 days.”
