Coon v. Georgia Pacific Corporation (1987)

In Coon v. Georgia Pacific Corp., 829 F.2d 1563, 1568-71 (11th Cir.1987), we affirmed the district court’s refusal to consider the plaintiffs claims of specific acts of discrimination, which she included in her briefs, discovery requests, and motions, but never added to her complaint.

Georgia Pacific Corp., 829 F.2d 1563, 1566-67 (11th Cir.1987)(finding that although plaintiff …

Georgia Pacific Corp., 829 F.2d 1563, 1570 (11th Cir.1987), a review of the authorities cited reflects that this proposition holds trae only in the context of an ongoing discriminatory policy or system — a prong of the continuing violation doctrine on which the plaintiff does not rely. 9 .
