The complaint seeks relief on behalf of fourteen female employees of the Shelby County Criminal Court Clerk's Office. Efforts to conciliate the Title VII charges were unsuccessful, and on July 22, 1985, the EEOC filed the instant lawsuit alleging violations of the Equal Pay Act, 29 U.S.C. After investigation the Commission found cause to believe that Title VII had been violated and also issued an equal pay letter of violation finding that males are receiving higher wages than females although the seniority dates are the same and the jobs are equal. On November 3, 1983, Teresa Rae Dowdy, a female employee of the clerk's office, filed a charge of discrimination with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC), alleging that Blackwell paid her less wages than similarly situated males in violation of the Equal Pay Act and Title VII. The clerk's office, which performs those duties typically associated with court clerks' offices, presently has fifty-four employees, thirty males and twenty-four females, and one vacant position. Blackwell has occupied that position since 1953. The Clerk of the Shelby County Criminal Court is elected by the people of the county for a four-year term. The court has considered all the evidence presented and applicable law and makes the following findings of fact and conclusions of law. § 206(d) on behalf of fourteen female employees of the Shelby County Criminal Court Clerk's Office.
