The agency may appeal a ruling criticizing its “sue first” approach in CRST sex harassment cases. EEOC argues delays and higher costs if upheld, while CRST and its counsel say the decision could curb unfair tactics and protect against costly litigation. The case centers on claims from female drivers and a $4.4 million fee award on appeal.
