NO FREE PASS TO HARASS
 
 
Ex-lovers whose fighting spills over to the workplace are not typically covered by Title VII, which does not prohibit harassment based on personal animosity. However, the Eleventh Circuit found that "a prior intimate relationship does not give . . . a free pass to harass." A jury verdict in favor of a female restaurant worker may therefore not be overturned by the district court.
