BB&K Partner John Higginbotham represented the City of Colton in Lorraine June v. City of Colton, et al. The case involved claims by a long-time employee that she was constructively terminated because of a disability and that the City failed to reasonably accommodate her. The employee also sued her department director and the City Manager for various intentional torts. BB&K eliminated the claims against the individuals at the demurrer stage based on plaintiff’s failure to comply with the Tort Claims Act. BB&K then disposed of the rest of the case on summary judgment by showing that the actions it took against plaintiff were for legitimate, non-discriminatory reasons unrelated to her disability. Judgment was entered in favor of the City and its employees for several thousand dollars in litigation costs.
