But a federal law enforcement agency called EEOC (Equal Employment Opportunity Commission) has the power to file discrimination suits against employers on behalf of alleged victims and to arbitrate claims of discrimination faced. This questions what importance and significance the employment contract holds where it’s clearly stated that all disputes are to be handled by binding arbitration. This could mean that the employer can face arbitration with the employee and litigation with EEOC that violates the original contract. Also, EEOC has the authority to decide which claim is appropriate and which claim serves public interest and I don’t agree with that 100%. In this official legal analysis paper, I would like to evaluate EEOC vs. Waffle house, which is the back bone of my paper along with my analysis and vision and EEOC’s outlook on importance of contracts with the help of their trial attorney.

Because she was denied access to her husband's money, Rudin needed a pro bono lawyer. Attorney Amador agreed to take the case pro bono in exchange for the right to turn her story into a movie script. Rudin agreed. Each time Rudin met with Amador, Amador made sure the t.v. news media was there so that the public would get a picture of her as the wrongly accused grieving widow.
Also discrimination claims can be based off of: 1) Disparate Impact or 2) Disparate Treatment. Disparate Treatment is a worker being the subject of discrimination due to race, skin color, ethnicity, or similar features (Bennett-Alexander, 2007). Disparate Impact is the company not intending to discriminate, although the company’s rules affect the workers on basis of race, skin color, ethnicity, or similar features (Bennett-Alexander, 2007). Horatio prior to filing his claim of racial discrimination must file a formal complaint. This complaint is filed with the EEOC.

Constructive discharge is considered the same as wrongful termination. Constructive discharge usually occurs when an employee makes changes that coerce an employee to resign. Constructive discharge would apply if the company implemented a change that is so intolerable a reasonable employee is forced to quit or resign, that company would be guilty of illegally firing the employee.
If the husband begins to stop doing some of his duties the wife will either need to pick up the load in order for the relationship to continue functioning or will begin to stop fulfilling some of her duties and the relationship will fall apart. “Functionalists say that we need to look at both structure (how the parts of society fit together to make the whole) and function (what each part does, how it contributes to society)” (Henslin, 2012).
