EEOC Charge Filing Does Not Toll Statute of Limitations for State Law Tort Claims: Second Circuit | Practical Law
In Castagna v. Luceno, the US Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit held that filing a charge with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) alleging claims in violation of Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 (Title VII) does not toll the limitations period for state law tort claims, even when the claims arise from the same facts and circumstances.
