What is the current state of the law on sexual harassment?
California, United States of America
The following excerpt is from Accardi v. Superior Court, 17 Cal.App.4th 341, 21 Cal.Rptr.2d 292 (Cal. App. 1993):
The term "sexual harassment" may lead many people to think of the first type of sexual harassment, that which involves unwelcome sexual advances. For example, in Henson v. City of Dundee (11th Cir.1982) 682 F.2d 897, a female police dispatcher stated a claim for sexual harassment where she alleged she had been denied promotion because she had rejected her supervisor's request for sexual favors. (See also Sampayo-Garraton v. Rave, Inc. (D.P.R.1989) 726 F.Supp. 18.)
