No Title VII Claim for Prospective Employee When No Job Existed: Seventh Circuit | Practical Law
In Wilson v. Cook County, the US Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit affirmed the dismissal of the plaintiff's Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 (Title VII) claim alleging she was forced to perform sexual acts to gain employment for a job she later learned did not exist. The court held that the plaintiff could not allege she was unlawfully denied employment when no job existed.
