Staub v. Proctor Hospital - Post-Argument SCOTUScast
SCOTUScast 11-10-10 featuring Victoria Dorfman
On November 2, 2010, the Supreme Court heard oral argument in Staub v. Proctor Hospital. The question in this case is in what circumstances can an employer be held liable under the Uniformed Services Employment and Reemployment Act (USERRA) for discharging a reservist based on bias against military service held by company employees who may have influenced, but did not make, the discharge decision.
To discuss the case, we have Victoria Dorfman, who is an associate at Jones Day. Ms. Dorfman is on an amicus brief in support of the respondent.
