Michigan Supreme Court overturns 21 million harassment verdict
The Michigan Supreme Court ruled the 1999 $21 million verdict against DaimlerChrysler for sexual harassment excessive and based on passion. Linda Gilbert alleged years of harassment at the Jefferson North plant in Detroit, with sexually explicit material found around her locker. The court sent the case back for a new trial, while noting the award was inflated. DaimlerChrysler welcomed the decision as a step toward a harassment free workplace.
