LaBonte v. Ascensus LLC

What this case is about

A plaintiff has filed a class action lawsuit against Ascensus, a financial services company that administers retirement and savings plans. The lawsuit alleges employment discrimination, suggesting that Ascensus engaged in unlawful discriminatory practices related to jobs or employment conditions. The plaintiff claims that Ascensus treated certain employees or job applicants unfairly based on a protected characteristic such as race, gender, age, disability, or another protected category under civil rights laws. The proposed class likely consists of current or former employees, or job applicants, who experienced similar discriminatory treatment by Ascensus during a defined time period. The plaintiffs are seeking relief for the harm caused by these alleged discriminatory employment practices, which they argue violated federal civil rights protections.
