Lake County

Donald Jackson worked as a senior utilities worker with the Public Works Department until he was fired in 2001. Jackson filed a wrongful termination lawsuit against the county claiming his supervisors ordered him to submit to a psychological examination without just cause. When he refused to take the test and sought legal counsel, he was suspended and fired from his job. The lawsuit claimed his supervisors violated the Americans with Disabilities Act. Lake County's Financial and Administrative Committee agreed to award Jackson a $500,000 settlement. (Mar-16-06) [PIONEER PRESS]
