Steak N Shake, Inc. v. Wilfred Ramos, Jr.

Summary

The court held that a claimant exhausts the Florida Civil Rights Act's administrative remedies by dual-filing an EEOC charge with the Florida Commission on Human Relations, even when the charge expressly references only federal law. The statutory requirement to state the relief sought does not require identifying the specific statute allegedly violated. The court approved the Second District's decision and disapproved contrary authority to the extent it imposed that additional requirement.
