Equal Employment Opportunity Commission v. Simbaki, Ltd.
Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit
1Opinion of the Court
EDITH BROWN CLEMENT, Circuit Judge:
Kimberly Kulig and Laura Baatz appeal the district court’s dismissal of their Title VII lawsuit against Berryhill Hot Tamales Corporation for failure to exhaust administrative remedies. The district court based its exhaustion holding on a determination that only pro se parties may invoke the judicially-recognized exceptions to Title VII’s named-party requirement. Because we determine that parties represented by counsel may too invoke the exceptions to the named-party requirement, we VACATE and REMAND for further proceedings consistent with this opinion.
