December 15, 2020 - 7:00 AM The B.C. Human Rights Tribunal has quashed an appeal from a former Kamloops cafe owner who argued she should receive financial compensation from the barista who publicly made false claims about sexual harassment which ultimately led to the cafe s bankruptcy. In the Dec. 10 B.C. Human Rights Tribunal decision, former cafe owner Kim Cecile argued the Tribunal should reconsider an earlier ruling dismissing her claim for damages after she won the case against her former employee Jordynn Denness. Denness, a former barista at the PDK Cafe Cecile had owned, filed a B.C. Human Rights Tribunal complaint accusing a co-worker of sexual harassment and her former employer of failing to take the complaint seriously. She alleged Cecile knew the co-worker had previously sexually harassed others but did nothing about it and, therefore, put her in danger.
