In a striking legal battle, a former employee has filed a lawsuit against her previous employer, alleging discrimination and wrongful termination linked to her pregnancy and associated medical conditions. On November 17, 2025, Tyesha Woods lodged the complaint in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Georgia against InformData, LLC.
The case revolves around Woods’ employment as a Court Researcher with InformData from November 27, 2023, until her termination on April 19, 2024. Woods claims that she faced discrimination due to her pregnancy and related health issues, including gestational diabetes. According to the filing, she informed InformData of her pregnancy upon hiring and was diagnosed with gestational diabetes shortly thereafter. Despite informing Human Resources about her condition and need for medical appointments, Woods alleges that the company failed to accommodate her needs adequately.
Woods further asserts that after returning from maternity leave on March 22, 2024, she was abruptly terminated under the pretext of not meeting productivity goals. The complaint highlights an incident where Woods had to visit the emergency room due to severe symptoms related to her condition; this day was cited by InformData as an example of poor productivity. Woods argues that this reasoning is pretextual and indicative of discriminatory practices.
The lawsuit accuses InformData of violating multiple federal laws: Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, the Pregnancy Discrimination Act (PDA), the Americans with Disabilities Act Amendments Act (ADAAA), and the Pregnant Workers Fairness Act (PWFA). It contends that InformData’s actions were reckless and undertaken in bad faith, causing significant emotional distress and financial loss for Woods.
Woods seeks various forms of relief from the court: declaratory judgment acknowledging unlawful employment practices by InformData; general damages for emotional suffering; punitive damages for willful misconduct; special damages for lost wages; attorney fees; and any other relief deemed appropriate by law. She also demands a jury trial to resolve these issues.
Representing Tyesha Woods are attorneys Jordan P. Rose and Anthony J. Hall from The Leach Firm, P.A., based in Winter Park, Florida. The case is presided over by Judge MHC-JKL under Case ID 1:25-cv-06593-MHC-JKL.
