Represented a municipal Board of Education in its defense of claims of race and disability discrimination and retaliation by a former employee. The employee claimed that they were not promoted based on their race, and that the Board terminated their employment based on a disability. The case was dismissed in full by the judge, citing insufficient evidence, among other reasons, to support both claims.
