California Woman Sues After Being Fired for Contracting COVID-19
A California woman is suing her former employer, alleging that she was fired after testing positive for COVID-19.
Priscilla Perez filed a lawsuit in the Los Angeles Superior Court on Nov. 12 against One Perfect Choice furniture store in Walnut. She is seeking damages from the company after she says they discriminated against her on the basis of disability, intentionally inflicted emotional distress and wrongfully terminated her.
McClatchy News reached out to One Perfect Choice for comment but did not receive a response Monday.
