Employment discrimination case timeline

An employment discrimination case timeline connects the administrative and litigation phases of a claim. It starts with the employment action that gave rise to the dispute, then records an EEOC charge and the right-to-sue notice before the federal complaint. The remaining events show disclosures, written discovery, a settlement conference and trial. This view helps counsel explain where a matter sits and plan evidence collection around the court schedule. A case can take a different path depending on the claims, forum and agency process, so the drawing should reflect the actual notice and scheduling order. Keep the timeline focused on procedural events rather than trying to summarize every factual allegation.
