Law360 Quotes Samantha Brooks on Key Title IX Case to Watch

Law360 quoted associate Samantha Brooks in its article, “4 Discrimination Cases To Watch In The 2nd Half Of 2026.” The piece, published on July 9, 2026, explores several high-profile cases, including a US Supreme Court matter that could determine whether employees can bring workplace discrimination claims under Title IX.

Brooks highlighted the potential impact of the Court’s decision, noting:

On the other hand, if the court finds that employees of federally funded educational institutions can file lawsuits against their institutions under Title IX, employers could suddenly encounter overlapping Title VII and Title IX claims in a single lawsuit.”
