Enforcement timeline
Chronologically-ordered enforcement actions linked to the instruments and topics tracked in the Policy Window catalog. Closed cases sort by their resolution year; ongoing cases sort by initiation. Each entry links to the catalog topics + the catalog instruments the case touches, and (where possible) to the best-available primary source for the action.
13 catalogued cases total · 1 match the current filter (year = 2022; instrument = NYC Local Law 144 of 2021 (Automated Employment Decision Tools)) clear all.

EEOC v. iTutorGroup, Inc.
EEOC v. iTutorGroup (AI age-discrimination consent decree)
E.D.N.Y. · No. 1:22-cv-02565
Enforcer: Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC)
Target: iTutorGroup, Inc.
Violation alleged: iTutorGroup's recruiting software automatically rejected female applicants aged 55 and older, and male applicants aged 60 and older, regardless of qualifications.
Lesson: First US EEOC-as-party suit against an AI-mediated hiring tool resolved by consent decree ($365,000 settlement + 5-year monitoring; required revised non-discriminatory application processes; mandatory anti-discrimination training; right to re-apply for rejected applicants). Establishes that pre-AI civil-rights statutes (ADEA, Title VII, ADA) can be applied to algorithmic hiring outputs without requiring a dedicated AI statute — the load-bearing precedent for the US 'sectoral / ex-post liability' regime in employment AI.

Editorial scope
This timeline reflects enforcement cases tracked in the Policy Window catalog. It is not exhaustive; coverage focuses on high-precedent matters relevant to the catalogued instruments (currently 13 cases across EU, US, UK, China, India, Italy, France). The catalog deliberately omits routine regulator letters and ongoing investigations whose materials are not public.
For the inclusion rubric (when a case enters the catalog, what level of source-defensibility is required, how jurisdictional balance is managed), see /wiki/methodology. Cases marked “ongoing” remain editorial-watch items; outcomes get backfilled as the public record settles.
