Join us for a candid discussion with Scott Simpson and Raya Saksouk of Menken Simpson & Rozger LLP on the practical and strategic lessons learned during a recent federal trial involving claims under New York Labor Law § 740. Our presenters will share firsthand insights on litigating this evolving cause of action—from pretrial submissions and motion practice through witness cross examinations and jury charge issues. In addition to practical insights, they will also discuss legal issues relating to, among other things, the causation standard under NYLL 740, the impact of a subsequent termination on a plaintiff's mitigation efforts, the defendant's burden of proof under NYLL 740(4)(c), and the state of the law on cat's paw theories of liability.
