Below is the complaint for sexual harassment that I filed against my former employer, SWIFT. It only takes a couple of minutes to read, and it provides a good description of the situation I was facing.
Below is a document that describes the case in detail. The reasons for my termination are described in the section “Sex Discrimination Lowered my Salary.” The section “Sexual Harassment by Elizabeth Cho and Trying to Get Evidence” is also relevant to my termination.
My case was dismissed by the judge because my lawyer filed amended complaints that contained none of the allegations of sexual harassment that I put in my original complaint. So, the amended complaints failed to allege a “hostile environment.” Of course, I objected to my lawyer omitting my allegations of sexual harassment from the amended complaints, but he overcame my objections by lying to me about the role of an amended complaint. He was literally the only lawyer who was willing to take the case, and he took it with the intention of getting it dismissed.
Most lawyers who handle sexual harassment cases, won’t take any case where a man is harassed by a woman. Of those who will, none will take a case where the nature of the harassment is what was done to me. After I discovered that my lawyer had lied to me about the role of the amended complaint, and had deliberately caused my case to be dismissed, I filed a motion requesting the judge to allow me to file another amended complaint that would not be written by that lawyer (who I fired). In this new complaint, the allegations from my original complaint, that allege a hostile environment of sexual harasmment, would be included. The motion to file another complaint was denied, and I appealed the denial. Below is the brief I filed in support of my appeal. The court of appeals ruled against me, simply stating that there was no “reversible error” in the judge’s denial of my motion to file another amended complaint. I strongly disagree with the opinion of the court of appeals.
