The trial will be held in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York. The court will also set deadlines for pre-trial filings concerning evidence and witnesses.

Meanwhile, a newly-unredacted document alleging an “uncorrected culture of sexual assault and harassment” at the investment bank claims that at least 75 incidents of alleged sexual assault and harassment were reported between 2000 and 2011, reported CNN.

The document is part of the ongoing gender discrimination lawsuit against the investment bank that dates back to 2010, when the original lawusuit was filed on behalf of former Goldman Sachs employees Cristina Chen-Oster, Allison Gamba, Shanna Orlich and Mary de Luis.

The original filing became a class-action lawsuit in 2018. It now represents more than 1,400 current and former female associates and vice-presidents who say they encountered discrimination over pay, promotion, and reviews, according to a press release.
