SDNY COURTHOUSE,
Oct 14 – Two employees
sued State State Bank for
discrimination. Then their
lawyer had some problems - and
now the lead plaintiff, too.
On
September 15 U.S. District
Court for the Southern
District of New York Judge
Gregory H. Woods held a status
conference. Inner City Press
covered it.
State Street's
lawyer complained about the
plaintiff getting double
standards, while purporting to
sympathize for their problems.
The plaintiffs cite State
Street's "notorious
male-dominated 'Boston club'
culture."
On October
14, Judge Woods held another
conference, and Inner City
Press again covered it. Now
the lead plaintiff Ksenia
Shnyra has asked for more time
to complete discovery, citing
"my own recent exposure to
COVID-19 and the need to
quarantine."
State Street's lawyer
countered that the quarantine
time could have been used to
search through emails and
produce discovery.
The case is
Shnyra et al v. State Street
Bank and Trust Co., Inc.,
19-cv-2420 (Woods)
