Our client suffers from a medical condition that occasionally requires time off from work. This intermittent leave is protected by FMLA. CSX retaliates, discourages, and chills the lawful use of FMLA. For that, we are suing.

Our client successfully worked as an electrician for more than twenty years before he was diagnosed with a seizure disorder. Even after multiple doctors cleared our client to return to work, Norfolk Southern refused to allow him to work and kept moving the goal posts, changing its criteria. This week a Court agreed and denied Norfolk Southern's motion for summary judgment. We look forward to presenting our full case to a jury.
