Filing of an Employment Discrimination Charge Under Title VII as Tolling the Statute of Limitations Applicable to a 1981 Action: The Unanswered Questions of Johnson v. REA

Dorocak, John R.

Case Western Reserve Law Review, 26, 4, 889-943, Sum 76

Two remedies exist for employment discrimination: Title VII of the 1964 Civil Rights Act and section 1981 of Title 42 of the U. S. Code, recently resurrected by the Supreme Court in Johnson v. REA. The author points out that this has increased the workload of the judiciary, especially since 1981 has no statute of limitations. (LBH)
