Client Alert | 1 min read | 10.22.14
In his article "A Twice-Told Tale: The Strangely Repeated Story of 'Bad Faith' in Government Contracts," published in the latest issue of The Federal Circuit Bar Journal, C&M's Rick Claybrook tells the story of how the Supreme Court over 50 years ago suddenly injected intentional animus into the analysis of whether the government acted in bad faith in its dealings with contractors—and promptly got rebuffed by Congress. He suggests that the Federal Circuit, ironically, has repeated the same error in some of its more recent decisions.

On February 17, 2026, the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) filed a complaint against Coca-Cola Beverages Northeast, Inc., in the United States District Court for the District of New Hampshire, alleging that the company violated Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 (Title VII) by conducting an event limited to female employees. The EEOC’s lawsuit is one of several recent actions from the EEOC in furtherance of its efforts to end what it refers to as “unlawful DEI-motivated race and sex discrimination.” See EEOC and Justice Department Warn Against Unlawful DEI-Related Discrimination | U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission.
