SDNY COURTHOUSE,
Sept 30 – Vibhaker Moudgil
was working at FujiFilm North
America Corp. when he began
complaining about the company
"engaging in unethical or
illegal conduct, such as
failing to pay taxes and using
other companies' computer code
without authoritization."
He was
fired, and he sued.
On
September 30, U.S. District
Court for the Southern
District of New York Judge
Mary Kay Vyskocil held a
proceeding. Inner City Press
covered it.
The parties
said they had tried mediation
at the EEOC, but it had not
worked. Judge Vyskocil praised
the SDNY mediation program but
did not force it on them. She
asked why discovery was set to
go so slowly, with depositions
running to December 15.
She set a
next status conference for
February 3 and noted that a
trial would take five to seven
days.
The case is
Moudgil v. Fujifilm North
America Corp., 20-cv-4732
(Vyskocil)
