The ongoing litigation between the 78,000-member, $1.5 billionPolish & Slavic Federal Credit Union and a former CEO overalleged discriminatory practices appears to be winding down and tohave grown smaller, according to court records.

|

The case is being heard in the U.S. District Court for NewJersey.

|

OskarMielczarek was the CEO at Polish & Slavic FCU from May 2011to May 2012 when the credit union fired him, he alleged, because he refused to go along with the creditunion's policy of hiring only people of Polish birth orancestry.

|

The credit union, through its court filings, has denied allMielczarek's allegations.

|

The case got smaller on March 25 when the court ordered thatMielczarek file an amended complaint against the credit union onlyand dropped the allegations against the credit union's boardmembers. PSFCU is based in New York City and also has branches inChicago.
