Uh, no, says judge.

Last week, I posted that the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission had asked Judge Tanya Chutkan to declare its EEO-1 "Category 2" pay data collection efforts to be complete.

The EEOC said that it had exceeded its self-imposed target response rate as of October 8. The plaintiffs didn't agree.

On Tuesday, Judge Chutkan denied the EEOC's motion. According to the Order, the EEOC is required to continue collecting Category 2 data until at least January 31.

(Don't worry, EEOC -- Groundhog Day will be here before you know it.)
