Hasani Anthony has filed a lawsuit against the MTA Long Island Railroad Company (LIRR) in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of New York, alleging disability discrimination. Represented by Ricotta & Marks, P.C., Anthony claims that LIRR failed to provide reasonable accommodations for her disabilities, which include anxiety, PTSD, and several physical conditions. Despite multiple requests for ergonomic equipment necessary for her work, Anthony alleges that LIRR either delayed or ignored these requests and retaliated against her after she filed complaints. The complaint details incidents where her equipment was tampered with or went missing, leading to significant pain and exacerbation of her conditions. Anthony seeks compensatory damages, lost wages, and other relief.
