“A federal judge in Chicago has found that a suburban car wash tried to intimidate its mostly Hispanic employees by requiring verification of their immigration status after three workers complained about alleged sexual harassment.

U.S. District Judge Ronald Guzman issued a protective order May 5 barring Glenview Car Wash from seeking further information about employees’ immigration status until a pending harassment suit concludes.

The class-action suit, filed on behalf of the car wash’s male employees in September by the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, is based on charges filed with that agency by Federico Antimo, Elmer Bethancourt and Diego Perez.”
