In the Matter of the State Division of Human Rights, on Complaint of Deborah E. Greene v. St. Elizabeth's Hospital

Summary

The Court held that a hospital cannot be held liable for the discriminatory remarks of its employee solely because it employs the doctor; liability requires a showing of condonation or other participation. Accordingly, the Court modified the Appellate Division’s order, remanded for further findings on whether the hospital’s conduct amounted to condonation, and otherwise affirmed the judgment.
