United States Supreme Court


Smith v. City of Jackson, Mississippi, 03-1160

Although the "disparate-impact" theory of recovery, for cases brought under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, is cognizable under the Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967, the disparate-impact theory's scope is narrower under the ADEA than under Title VII.
