Facts of the Case

Billy Bob, began his employment with Widget World Co., the Defendant, on January 2, 1990. Mr. Bob worked as a truck driver for Widget World, initially in its Blackacre terminal, and then in its Whiteacre terminal. Widget World is a widget company that utilizes hazardous materials on a daily basis. On November 11, 20015, Mr. Bob was terminated.

In September of 2015, Mr. Bob and several other Widget World employees were sent to Whiteacre to refurbish a floor in the plant with epoxy product. There is a question as to whether Mr. Bob followed instructions in refurbishing the floor in the plant.

Thereafter, on November 9, 2015, Mr. Bob suffered from a workplace injury, and reported it to the company. Mr. Bob has had on-going rheumatoid arthritis, and in October of 2015, he stepped off the back end of a trailer and jarred himself when he hit the ground. A few weeks later he felt such a sharp pain from his injury that he could hardly walkHis pain was so intense that he was taken to the local emergency room and received several painkiller injectionsHe informed the company that he was going to file a worker’s compensation claim pertaining to that injury. When Mr. Bob informed Mr. Widgetall, Widget World’s Safety Director, about his intention, the conversation between the two became heated.

At a meeting on November 11, 2015, Mr. Bob reiterated his intention to file a worker’s compensation claim for his injury. Mr. Mitchell, the safety director for Roeder, then produced a termination letter to Mr. Bob, alleging insubordination and terminated Bob’s employment. The next day, Mr. Bob filed a workers’ compensation claim.

Mr. Bob initiated this case, alleging that he was terminated in relation for his intent to file a workers’ compensation claim, in violation of Whiteacre law. Widget World has filed a counterclaim against Mr. Bob, alleging defamation. The trial is set to commence in two weeks, and motions in limine are required to be filed this week.
