Why did it take her almost 2 years to file a lawsuit?

:EDIT: Instead of downvoting me, how about educating me? Fuck Reddit sometimes.

If you’re going after a company as big as Paramount you better have your entire case finished and ready before filing to sue. Takes a long time.

You have to file locally in the State for discrimination cases before you can file a federal lawsuit. That takes a lot of time. Especially since all the courts are backed up since COVID.

In the meantime, some lower court Trumper judge in the state sided with anti-vaxxers (saying New York has to pay them restituiton and give them back their old jobs if they were fired for refusing to follow Covid guidelines/get vaxxed). So now a higher court has to deal with undoing that bullshit, before a decision can be made in the case of the safety worker suing over conditions.

I believe it only applies to government employees, but you might want to corroborate.

I honestly think people downvote or upvote based on whether or not your comments karma is negative or positive. Just need to go along with the rest of the sheep.
