29 CFR 1626

Legal Deadline:

None

Abstract:

Section 115 of the Civil Rights Act of 1991 deleted references to the Portal to Portal Act from the private suit provisions of the Age Discrimination in Employment Act (ADEA) and replaced them with a requirement that suit be filed no later than 90 days after termination of proceedings or dismissal of a charge by EEOC. Accordingly, section 1626.7(a) is being deleted and section 1626.15(b) is being revised because they were both based upon the Portal to Portal Act. New sections are being added concerning termination of EEOC proceedings and the issuance of notices of the new 90-day limitation period.
