: ACS BlogAppeals Court Revives Discrimination Claim Against Iona College
A three-judge panel of the 2nd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals reinstated a lawsuit against Iona College filed by a former assistant basketball coach who claimed he was fired because he was married to an African American woman.
The 2nd Circuit ruled in Holcomb v. Iona College that Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 may be violated where a white man is fired for his association with another person of another race; other courts have held such a claim could not survive if the plaintiff did not allege discrimination motivated by the plaintiff's race. It is the first such application of that law in this circuit.
