discrimination
This action originated when Patricia Hoffman (“Hoffman”) filed a charge of
with
the
Equal
Employment
Opportunity
Commission
("EEOC”
or
20
“Commission"). Hoffman alleged that Defendant Northwest Territorial Mint, LLC (“Defendant”
21
or “NWTM”) through the actions of its owner and president Ross Hansen, discriminated against
22
23
24
her in violation of Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, as amended, (“Title VII”), 42 U.S.C.
§ 2000e, et seq., by subjecting her and a class of similarly aggrieved female employees to a

hostile and abusive work environment based on their sex (Female), resulting in conditions so
intolerable that Ms. Hoffman was constructively discharged from her position.
2.
On July 3, 2015, the EEOC issued a Letter of Determination with a finding of
4
reasonable cause to believe that Defendant violated Title VII regarding Hoffman and a class of
5
similarly aggrieved female employees. Thereafter, EEOC attempted to conciliate the charge and
6
conciliation was unsuccessful.
7
3.
The Commission filed its Complaint on September 30, 2015, in the United States
8
9
District Court for the Western District of Washington. The Complaint alleges that Defendant
10
subjected Hoffman and a class of similarly aggrieved female employees (also referred to as
11
“EEOC Class” and “EEOC Class Member”) to a hostile work environment based on their sex,
12
female, and constructively discharged Hoffman. The EEOC’s class consisted of two other
13
similarly aggrieved females as of September 30, 2015, which the EEOC expected would increase
14
with additional discovery.
The EEOC presently seeks relief for Hoffman and four other
15
similarly aggrieved females.
16
17
4.
The parties want to conclude fully and finally all claims arising out of the EEOC’s
18
Complaint and Ms. Hoffman’s charge of discrimination filed with EEOC. The EEOC and
19
Defendant enter into this Consent Decree to further the objectives of equal employment
20
opportunity as set forth in Title VII.
21
5.
On April 1, 2016, NWTM filed a voluntary petition under Chapter 11 of the
22
United States Bankruptcy Code in the United States Bankruptcy Court, Western District of
23
24
25
Washington (the “Bankruptcy Case”) (Case No. 16-11767-CMA). Pursuant to 11 U.S.C. §
362(a)(4), this action was not subject to the automatic stay. See 11 U.S.C. § 362; EEOC v.
