• holding that where the ultimate issue of whether the employer had violated the plaintiff’s rights turned on the propriety of its employees conduct, the parties must be viewed as sufficiently the same, “if not identical”
• holding that the defendants in distinct lawsuits—the employer and employees—were in privity with one another because of the “nature of the relationship between the defendants” and because the claims alleged depended on the propriety of the employees’ actions
