GARTRELL v. BERKADIA COMMERCIAL MORTGAGE LLC

What this case is about

A plaintiff named Gartrell is suing Berkadia Commercial Mortgage, a commercial lending and mortgage servicing company, alleging workplace discrimination in violation of federal civil rights employment law. The lawsuit claims the company engaged in discriminatory practices against the plaintiff in the context of employment, which may include unfair treatment related to hiring, firing, pay, job assignments, promotions, or working conditions based on a protected characteristic such as race, sex, religion, or national origin. The case has been filed as a class action, suggesting the plaintiff believes other employees or job applicants at Berkadia may have experienced similar discriminatory treatment. The proposed class would likely include current or former employees who faced comparable adverse employment actions at the company.
