Case: Wage & Hour/FMLA Retaliation (N.D. Ohio)

An Ohio federal district court granted Mercy Health Physicians Youngstown, LLC’s motion for judgment on the pleadings against a Nigerian-American cardiac electrophysiologist’s claims of interference and retaliation under the Family and Medical Leave Act and wage discrimination under the Equal Pay Act, finding these claims time-barred as they were filed more than two years after the alleged violations without sufficient evidence of willfulness to trigger the three-year statute of limitations, while dismissing her Title VII discrimination claim without prejudice for failure to exhaust administrative remedies.
