Bracker v. Cohen

Outcome: (Not available)

Description: In 1991, the City of New York enacted its own Human Rights Law authorizing a private cause of judicial action for victims of employment discrimination. The New York City law was challenged in Bracker v. Cohen, a sexual harassment case in which Schwartz & Perry LLP represented the plaintiff. Ms. Perry was significantly involved in responding to the challenge to the law, which was ultimately found to be constitutional. As a result, a multitude of cases have been instituted under that law.
