One of the single biggest issues that we employment lawyers must confront is ensuring that our clients have properly administratively exhausted his or her claims. The path to a successful employment claim is riddled with obstacles and roadblocks, none more significant than being able to file a civil lawsuit in the first place. Experience has shown that if there is even so much as the slightest slip-up when filing an administrative charge, savvy employers will pounce like a famished lion on a hapless gazelle. Look no further than a recent decision from the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit where a majority panel threw out a retaliation suit because the claim was not included within the four corners of the original Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) charge.
