Reed Smith LLP Pushes Back Against Former Attorney’s Gender Discrimination Discovery Request

Reed Smith LLP has urged a New Jersey state court judge to reject a bid by a former attorney who is suing the firm for gender discrimination. The contention revolves around the plaintiff’s request to obtain pay data going back nearly 20 years. Reed Smith characterizes the demand as without any legal basis to justify expanding the scope of discovery. This stance, as argued by the firm, is aimed at narrowing the focus of the lawsuit for more efficient judicial processing. For further details, please refer to the original article.
