Outcome

Plaintiff prevailed on sex discrimination claims and won damages, but the Eleventh Circuit reversed and remanded to recalculate damages. The court found plaintiff was entitled to recover the sum of maximum damages under both Title VII ($50,000) and Florida Civil Rights Act (no cap on compensatory, $100,000 cap on punitive), yielding $481,028 rather than the district court's award of $181,028.
