In a recent filing in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Georgia, plaintiff Merita Gibson has initiated a lawsuit against her former employer, R.R. Donnelley & Sons Co., alleging violations of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). The complaint centers around claims that Gibson was wrongfully terminated due to her need for temporary accommodations related to her chronic anemia condition. Despite working remotely successfully for several years, Gibson’s request to continue remote work during a medical treatment period was denied by the company. The case highlights allegations of disability discrimination and failure to accommodate under federal law. Gibson seeks compensatory and punitive damages, as well as lost wages and benefits.
