Former Head of the National Communications and Broadcasting Department Declines Demand for Dismissal of Racial Discrimination Lawsuit
In a significant turn of events, Jaime Black, a notable figure, has filed a racial discrimination lawsuit against Brittnie Watkins, a member of the Nevada Gaming Control Board (NGCB), in September. The lawsuit, which was filed by Black's attorney, Mark Mausert, in Las Vegas's US District Court, alleges that Watkins fostered a hostile work environment and violated Title VII of the Civil Rights Act.
The case is currently being presided over by Judge Miranda Du. The motion was accompanied by a 24-page response, arguing that there was sufficient evidence to back the claims of racial discrimination against Watkins.
However, in a recent development, the NGCB has submitted a motion to dismiss the lawsuit in October. Despite numerous searches, no further comment has been made by NGCB representatives regarding the suit or the case, according to reports on Tuesday.
In the lawsuit, Black claims that she was pressured by Watkins, who is also Black, to practice discriminatory hiring practices. Black's attorney asserts that the allegations in the lawsuit have a "sufficient factual and legal basis for each cause of action." The NGCB, on the other hand, has dubbed Black's claims as baseless.
It's important to note that, based on the current search results, the status of such a lawsuit and the specific allegations made by Black are not documented or publicly accessible through various sources such as court dockets, civil hearing records, legislative or committee reports, or legislative records from Cleveland, Colorado, Jackson MI, and Hamilton County TN. This could suggest that the case may be confidential, recently filed without public docketing, or not covered in available records at this time.
