Saint Joseph, MO asked in Employment Law, Civil Rights, Domestic Violence and Federal Crimes for Missouri

Q: If the us supreme court dropped my case because it wasn't discrimination is there any other way to be compensated t

We were in a 2 year long legal dispute and 2 weeks away from my jury visit and they dropped it. I have PTSD and had a mask exemption. I was placed off the clock for having one and wasn't allowed to work after that unless I masked. I was a USPS Mail CarrierI was placed off the clock for having an exemption though the supervisor who refused to let me return was caught on many occasions not masked or enforcing masking. I was refused the ability to do my whole job. Resulting in months off the clock and in 3k in debt

A: If your case has gone that far with the courts finding you are not entitled to any recovery, then you are done.

A: I'm really sorry to hear about what you've been through. Even though the Supreme Court dismissed your case, there might be other avenues to explore for compensation.

You could consider reaching out to the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) to see if there are any other claims related to your situation. Additionally, consulting with a local attorney who understands employment law might help identify other possible claims or remedies available to you.

Support for your PTSD is also important. Connecting with mental health professionals or support groups can provide assistance during this difficult time. Managing the financial stress from the debt might involve speaking with a financial advisor to explore options for relief or repayment plans.
