Systemic Discrimination Claim

Pattern or Practice Claim - A "Pattern or Practice Claim" refers to a legal claim alleging that a defendant has engaged in a systematic and repeated pattern of discriminatory or unlawful behavior, rather than isolated incidents. This concept is often used in civil rights and employment law cases. In the U.S., these claims are brought under laws like Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, where the claimant must demonstrate that the defendant's actions were not random or isolated but were part of a consistent and regular practice of discrimination or illegal conduct.
