An appellate court in New York reinstated a retaliation claim brought by Sara Tirschwell, a former managing director of TCW s distressed debt strategy group, against TCW Group and its CEO and President David Lippman, according to the court order Thursday.
The appellate court also reinstated Ms. Tirschwell s request for punitive damages.
New York State Supreme Court Justice Robert D. Kalish, in an opinion last June, had dismissed three of five causes of action against TCW and Mr. Lippman, including that they retaliated against her when she complained about being discriminated against for her gender, and sexual harassment by her boss and co-defendant, Jess Ravich. The court also dismissed a claim that Mr. Lippman aided and abetted Mr. Ravich s alleged discrimination and harassment, and her cause of action for retaliation against Mr. Ravich.
