Los Angeles employment lawyer Jeffrey Cowan sued the company for unlawful retaliation under California's employment civil rights statute, the Fair Employment and Housing Act (“FEHA”). During discovery, the company could not get its story straight about why it fired our client or who made the decision to do so. It also was caught (a) trying to hide a key witness and (b) trying to tamper with her testimony before she could be subpoenaed for a deposition. Jeffrey Cowan filed a special motion for discovery sanctions and an instruction to the jury about the company's misconduct and the inferences that could be drawn from it. The judge, Hon. Robert Hess, hinted that he was going to grant the motion and then deferred ruling on it. The lawsuit then settled just two weeks before trial for $468,000.
