Final answer:
Jamie should consider filing a lawsuit in a federal district court after the EEOC does not find cause for a racial discrimination charge, by gathering evidence to prove unfair treatment compared to similarly situated employees of a different race.
Step-by-step explanation:
If Jamie wants to pursue the complaint after the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) did not find cause to charge Samantha with violating Title VII of the Civil Rights Act, Jamie can still file a lawsuit in a federal district court. In preparation for this lawsuit, Jamie must gather substantial evidence that supports the claim of racial discrimination in employment. This includes proving that he or she was treated unfavorably compared to an employee of another race who holds a similar job, with similar educational attainment, and with similar expertise. Additionally, Jamie should be prepared to show that any differences in treatment are not based on legitimate business needs but solely on racial discrimination.
