Kiehn v. United States

On September 2, 1988, Ms. Deborah Hinton Brown, a black female employee of Citicorp Diners Club, Inc. (Diners Club) in its office located in Englewood, Colorado, filed a charge with the EEOC wherein she alleged that Diners Club denied her a promotion because of her sex and race. Shortly thereafter, the EEOC commenced an investigation of Ms. Browns charge. From September 2, 1989, to June 4, 1990, the EEOC conducted on-site interviews and made numerous requests for information concerning Diners Clubs promotion policies. Diners Club apparently complied with these requests.
