The New York Law Journal recently reported that a partner at a major law firm suit her firm for discrimination, here. A copy of the complaint, which was filed in the District of Columbia, is available here.
I bring this case to your attention because it presents an interesting legal issue of whether a partner can bring a claim under employment discrimination and other statutes designed to protect "employees". Though not stated in the article, that is likely an issue that is going to be raised.
I wrote a law review article on a similar topic a few years ago. You can download a copy of my article by clicking here.
