New Orleans Public Schools
Employees Justice
Our lawsuit relates to the
wrongful termination of 8,600 employees after Hurricane Katrina. It has
nothing to do with two other class action lawsuits that have been filed
against OPSB.
In late June of 2009, certain OPSB employees will receive a letter and a
claims form concerning the sabbatical/sick leave class action lawsuit
filed by UTNO. There will be deadlines and there will be a court hearing
in the sabbatical case that have nothing to do with our wrongful
termination class action. Additionally, some OPSB
employees have received a letter from attorney Jack Harang. His class
action lawsuit involves claims relating to unpaid overtime for
certain school board employees during the time period 2001-2004, which
was prior to Katrina. His lawsuit has nothing to do with ours.
