What is the scope of the statute of civil liability in the context of sexual harassment cases?

California, United States of America


The following excerpt is from Levine v. Weis, 108 Cal.Rptr.2d 562 (Cal. App. 2001):

But the statute under consideration here does not "focus in particular on those who seek to suppress or punish . . . ." (Caldwell v. Montoya, supra, 10 Cal.4th at p. 986, fn. 7.) It does not mention officers or employees as among those who might be liable. Instead, it imposes liability only on the employer.

The judgments against individual employees of VCSS must be reversed.
