BB&K Partners Howard Golds and John Higginbotham represented the City of Corona in Mir Fattahi v. City of Corona, et al. The case involved claims by a Middle Eastern-origin employee that he was subjected to offensive comments about his race and religion by his supervisor and then terminated because of his national origin and religion. BB&K prevailed on summary judgment by convincing the court that plaintiff was terminated for poor performance and other reasons unrelated to plaintiff’s national origin or religion. Judgment was entered in favor of the City for its litigation costs.
