- Share via
One of four women lawyers in the Pasadena city attorney’s office suing the city for sexual discrimination has settled for $75,000 plus a pay raise, officials confirmed Friday.
The settlement with Assistant City Atty. Carolyn Y. Williams was approved by the Pasadena City Council on Monday and is much more than the $20,000 the city offered Williams in September. Williams attorney, Joe Hopkins, would not say how large a raise his client would receive but said it would be substantial. Top scale for a city attorney of Williams’ rank is about $97,000 annually.
