Fleet Bank of New York will not face a Labor Department investigation into charges that it discriminated against seven black employees in its Buffalo office, the department said yesterday. The employees, who filed a $1.8 billion lawsuit in December, accused Fleet of denying them promotions and of discriminating against them. But because they filed a private lawsuit, not a complaint with the Labor Department, the department is not required to investigate, a representative of the department said. James Mahoney, a spokesman for Fleet, said the company was reviewing the charges, though he added, "We would strenuously deny that there's any pattern of discrimination in the company." Fleet Bank of New York is a unit of Fleet Financial Group Inc., which is based in Boston.
