United States Seventh Circuit

In a discrimination case, the district court's decision to grant summary judgment in favor of defendant is reversed where defendant did not meet its burden to prove that there was an accord and satisfaction. Also, the enforcement of a settlement agreement is reversed where the agreement's terms are in conflict with a previous arbitration award.
