Can I sue my previous employer for mental harrassment and sexual harrassment if it has been 4 years since I worked there?

Asked by a user in Margate, FL - 6 days ago.

Unfortunately, your claim appears to be time barred. Generally speaking, employees have 180 days to file a complaint or charge with the EEOC for sexual harrassment violations. Even though some recent case law arguably extends this period to as much as 300 days, there appears to be no statute or case law which allows the filing of a sexual harrassment claim four (4) years after the fact. Sorry.
