LIsa Domski with her attorney Jon Marko, outside the federal courthouse in Detroit on Nov. 8, 2024.
Lisa Domski used to work for
Blue Cross-Blue Shield of Michigan. She was with them for 38 years as
an IT tech. She refused to get a Covid vaccine on religious grounds and
her employer fired her ass back in 2021.
She
was just awareded $13 million by a federal jury in a religious
discrimination suit against her former employer. Her employer asserted
they were unaware of her claim for religious exemption. She had made
the request in writing with contact info for her priest and parish. She
alleges the employer never followed up but simply sacked her.
The ruling came one month after Blue Cross of Tennessee bit the big wennie to the tune of $700,000 for a similar case.
There
are about 170 lawsuits of a similar vein pending against Blue Cross,
most being handled by the same lawyer, Jon Marko, who I expect is very
happy right about now.
Blue Cross is reviewing the judgement and exploring their options.
