Clouse Dunn LLP announced Friday that the former Chief Executive Officer of Tuesday Morning Corp. (TUES) has filed a discrimination lawsuit against the company, after she was fired last year within months of revealing her battle with breast cancer.
Dallas attorney Rogge Dunn of Dallas' Clouse Dunn LLP filed the lawsuit on behalf of Kathleen Mason, who led Tuesday Morning to 12 consecutive years of profitability before she was fired during a phone call last June.
Dunn said the lawsuit also is a wakeup call to all companies that mistakenly regard someone with cancer as having a disability.
According to the complaint, Mason was treated differently by the Tuesday Morning board of directors after revealing her breast cancer diagnosis in the spring of last year, even though she continued to work full days and successfully performed her duties. Only three months after the company awarded her a new contract that boosted her salary by $50,000, awarded 200,000 stock options and other substantial performance incentives, Tuesday Morning fired her without warning.
