New Clearinghouse Book The Law of Age Discrimination: A Reference Manual by Burton Fretz and Neal Dudovitz of the National Senior Citizens Law Center This manual examines federal laws dealing with the issue of discrimination on account of age. The majority of the information deals with the Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967 and its amendments, as well as the actions of the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission in administering and enforcing the Act. Topics include coverage, administrative exhaustion, civil actions, defenses, remedies, and jury instructions. Also treated are possible causes of action under the Age Discrimination Act of 1975 and the federal constitution. The 120-page manual is available from the Clearinghouse. One copy has already been distributed to each LSC-funded legal services office and law school legal clinic and each Administration on Aging-funded legal services office. Additional copies are available for purchase for $15 per copy; order Clearinghouse No. 42,450. A bulk rate of $12 per copy for orders of 15 or more to one address for pro bono panels or workshops is also available. Non-LSC-funded offices may order copies at the regular price.
