TAMPA, Fla. — Hillsborough County’s court clerk has agreed to reinstate an Army Reserve sergeant to her old job as part of a lawsuit settlement.
The Department of Justice reported Thursday that it had settled the suit on behalf of Tracey Marshall because the circuit court clerk’s office failed to re-employ her at her previous position. Marshall had been a supervisor in the criminal division and wanted that job back when she returned from active duty in October 2005.
The suit also said Marshall’s superiors retaliated against her when she made a complaint under a federal law protecting jobs for people who serve in the military.
Besides giving Marshall her old job back, the clerk’s office will pay her a $2,500 monetary award.
