$150,000 Settlement for Race Discrimination Case

Philadelphia employment lawyer, Sidney L. Gold,  represented the plaintiffs to settle race discrimination claims against Bangor Area School District. The suit was filed in September 2014 by three current and former students in federal court alleging the district discriminated against them because they were black.  The Bangor Area School District agreed to a settlement of $150,000 to resolve the case. The majority of the award will be distributed to the three students and their families, with the remaining amount to cover attorneys’ fees.
