Answer to Question 1

Before a plaintiff can bring suit under Title VII, he must first file a complaint with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission. Generally, this must happen within 180 days of the wrongdoing. The EEOC then conducts an investigation and attempts to mediate the dispute if appropriate. If the EEOC investigation reveals that discrimination has occurred, it will typically file the suit on behalf of the plaintiff. This arrangement is favorable to the plaintiff because the government pays the legal bills. If the EEOC decides not to bring a suit in the case or does not make a decision within six months, it issues a right to sue letter, and the plaintiff may proceed on his own in court within 90 days.

Answer to Question 2

FALSE
