Supreme Court of the United States

Florida v. Long — Blackmun, J., Concurring in Part and Dissenting in Part

June 22, 1988487 U.S. 223

Summary

Justice Blackmun concurs with the majority that retirees who left employment before the Manhart decision are not entitled to retroactive relief, but dissents from the majority’s categorical denial of retroactive relief to retirees who left after Manhart, arguing that Manhart gave clear notice that the pension plan violated Title VII and that equity does not preclude retroactive liability.
