Women’s and Civil Rights Groups File Briefs
October 2, 2019
Professor Jennifer Freyd
A group of 47 women’s and civil rights groups, including Equal Rights Advocates, the ACLU Women’s Rights Project, and the National Women’s Law Center, filed a brief in support of our client, Professor Jennifer Freyd, and her equal pay case against the University of Oregon. The American Association of University Professors also filed a friend-of-the-court brief supporting her case. The case raises important issues about enforcement of the equal pay laws in academia and closing the pay gap for women. It is currently before the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals. For more information on Professor Freyd’s work on sexual assault and institutional courage, see Project on Institutional Courage.
