Shafer v. Army & Air Force Exchange Service

EMILIO M. GARZA, Circuit Judge:

This appeal arises out of a Title VII and contempt action filed by Judith Ann Parks against the Army & Air Force Exchange Service (AAFES). Parks’ individual action was originally- part of a larger Title VII class action suit alleging sex discrimination. against AAFES. In resolving the class action, the district court determined that AAFES’ policies had a disparate impact on a class of female employees employed after 1972, and that this class of employees had received differing treatment with respect to placement and promotion. See Shafer v. AAFES, 667 F.Supp.…
