On January 23, 2026, Kennedy Hunt P.C. filed an employment rights complaint against O’Fallon Casting, alleging the corporation discriminated against our client in violation of the Missouri Human Rights Act, the Americans with Disabilities Act, and the Family Medical Leave Act.
According to the lawsuit, our client worked as a Puller Pourer for O’Fallon Casting from about January 2018 until the termination of his employment on or about January 30, 2024.
The lawsuit states that our client has the medical condition of migraines, which constitutes a disability under the Missouri Human Rights Act and the Americans with Disabilities Act.
The lawsuit also states that since approximately 2019, O’Fallon Casting approved our client’s intermittent Family Medical Leave Act time off work due to his migraines. Our client’s intermittent FMLA allowed him to take off work if he had migraines and was unable to work due to his condition.
The lawsuit alleges that our client started reporting to a new supervisor in 2023, who told our client they needed him to work on days he was off from work.
The lawsuit claims that on January 30, 2024, O’Fallon Casting terminated our client’s employment.
The lawsuit also alleges that O’Fallon Casting has terminated one or more other employees who were utilizing FMLA since our client’s termination.
The lawsuit seeks wages and benefits of employment that our client has lost and is reasonably certain to lose in the future, and prejudgment interest on the same; for emotional distress damages, punitive damages, liquidated damages, attorneys’ fees, and costs of litigation
