More on Ohio Pumping at Work Case

Here is the link to the slip opinion on this case. The dissenting opinions are very interesting, with one concluding that while the trial court entering summary judgment in favor of the employer was proper, the appellate court should have considered the question of whether it is okay for a woman to be fired from her job for pumping. The second dissenting opinion goes even further and says that the plaintiff/appellant should have had the opportunity to present the facts before a jury.

We will keep an eye on this one.
