     March 2012: Chief Financial Officer lawsuit and whistleblower complaint, former seeking more than $5 million in damages. read more >

      April 2012 status: Hieber, Skaer, Van Noy and Christenson v the Spokane County Club, private golf club discrimination.  Ms.Schultz's plaintiff clients are female members of the Spokane Golf and Country Club. Private clubs are usually exempt from discrimination laws, but Plaintiffs Drusilla Hieber, Laura Skaer, Nancy Van Noy and Tracy Christensen have already received judgment from the trial court finding the Spokane Country Club to be a public accomodation. The current issue is whether these women plaintiffs are already entitled, without the need for trial, to an injunction terminating ongoing gender classification policies at the Club, court oversight of that injunction, and judgment for damages. The action is in the Appellate Court, and the issue is whether trial will even be necessary to entitle the women to the remedies they seek.
