AD’s Title IX Complaints Lead to Whistleblower Claim

Legal920 Feat

In employee termination, it is sometimes difficult to determine when an employer crosses the line into illegality. This is especially true when the employee has a difficult time working with others in the organization, while at the same time raising questions about the practices or behavior of his or her supervisors.

In order to protect from retaliation those public employees who are willing to raise such questions, especially in cases where the complained-about conduct violates the law, states and the federal government have passed whistleblower protection statutes. However — as the court's decision in Cass v. Town of Wayland, 383 F.Supp.3d 66 (2019) illustrates — one of the biggest issues the courts face in any whistleblower case is determining whether the terminated employee was being punished or rather fired for legitimate, non-retaliatory reasons.
