Description
This appeal arises out of an action brought by the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission under Title VII, Civil Rights Act of 1964, 42 U.S.C. ร§ 2000e et seq., as amended by the Equal Employment Opportunity Act of 1972 P.L. 92-261, 86 Stat. 103 (March 24, 1972), seeking reinstatement and back pay for the allegedly aggrieved party, Sandra Drew, pending final disposition of her charge before the Commission. The Appellant, Liberty Mutual Insurance Company (Liberty), complains of an order issued by the District Court requiring it to reinstate Mrs. Drew to her former position and directing that she be given back pay with interest from the date of her discharge. We are unable to agree with the contention of Liberty that the record fails to support the action taken by the District Court. Our review of the record fails to convince us that the District Court abused its discretion in issuing the order. However, we take note of the fact that the order of the District Court has provided Mrs. Drew with full pay for a period of almost one full year. In addition, she was allowed interest on the back pay awarded to her during the period of her discharge before reinstatement.
