Underwood v. Perry County Commission
2005 U.S. App. LEXIS 26518
In Underwood, the plaintiff sued the county and its supervisor alleging sexual discrimination in hiring for a trucker's position. Specifically, the plaintiff alleges that when she asked Paige, who was the supervisor if they hired female, he stated they did if they were qualified. In November of 2000, the plaintiff began to get the requisite training. She completed it and got her Class A driver's license in February 2001. Underwood at 4-5.
She again spoke with Paige about open positions for the county and he said there might be some requiring Class A and Class B. Paige stated he was going to hire Dallas for the class A, but the plaintiff even agreed that he was more qualified. She also applied for the class B positions in January 2001, March 2001, and May 2001. Underwood at 5-6.
On her May 2001 application, she did not specify Class A or B status
