United States First Circuit

In a Title VII claim of sexual harassment brought by former employee-plaintiff against former supervisor, summary judgment for defendant-employer is affirmed where: 1) defendant met the reasonable standard in preventing and correcting harassment; and 2) company was deprived of the opportunity to take remedial action because plaintiff-former employee did not make allegations of sexual harassment until she filed suit over a year after leaving her job at defendant company.
