Four days later, on February 2, 2026, Goldstone resigned. The carrier alleges that, on that same day, Scholarships.com signed an application to raise its EPL limit from $5,000 to $500,000, and asked for the change to be backdated to February 1 – one day before the resignation. The application reached Hartford on February 10, 2026. Goldstone filed her charge with the Illinois Department of Human Rights on or about February 18, 2026, and it was tendered to Hartford on or about March 3, 2026.
