Abstract/Contents:Announces a legal settlement between Arcenio "Steve" Garcia and Pueblo Country Club in Colorado. States that Garcia "won a total of $1.5 million in two judgements against his former employer after the 40-year old club employee lost his job in 1998." Briefly discusses the case, stating that "in a civil suit [in] November [2003], Garcia claimed his position as grounds maintenance superintendent was eliminated in 1998 so the club could hire a younger man as golf course superintendent...[and] a federal jury awarded Garcia a total of $417,923 in back pay and lost earnings. On [August] 25 [2003], U.S. [United States] District Court Judge Wiley Y. Daniel ordered the club to pay Garcia additional damages of $1.1 million, including $256,362 in back pay."
