EQUAL EMPLOYMENT OPPORTUNITY COMMISSION, Petitioner-Appellant, v. DEAN WITTER COMPANY, INC., Respondent-Appellee

Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit

Decided December 22, 1980No. 78-1180PublishedCited by 22 opinions

1Opinion of the Court

TANG, Circuit Judge:

The Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) appeals the district court’s order denying enforcement of an administrative subpoena issued to Dean Witter & Company, Inc., on the ground that the Commissioner’s charge was too inspecific to warrant its enforcement. The EEOC contends the charge was sufficient to comply with the amended notice requirements of § 706(b) of Title VII of the Civil Rights Act, 42 U.S.C. § 2000e-5(b). We find that the charge failed to meet the § 706(b) requirements, and affirm the district court’s order.
