Changes in Employment Discrimination Law have refined many of the substantive doctrines and continued to clarify procedural issues. A number of relevant decisions have explored the scope of protection provided by the Americans with Disabilities Act, while others have focused on the extent to which Title VII proscribes sexually harassing behavior.
