On September 25, 2024, the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission ("EEOC" or "Commission") commenced this action pursuant to Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 ("Title VII") and Title I of the Civil Rights Act of 1991. The Complaint alleges that, since at least January 1, 2019 through February 3, 2026, Kickback Jack's violated Title VII based on having had, and continuing to have, a policy or practice of intentionally failing to hire male applicants for nonmanagerial front-of-house positions because of their sex, male, in violation of Title VII.
