Daniel partially denies Veterans Affairs’ motion for summary judgment, and denies the suing VA pharmacy technician’s motion for summary judgment on the plaintiff’s disability discrimination and retaliation claims. The pharmacy technician suffered an extensive nerve injury while on the job that left her with only limited use of her arms, hands and neck; she says the VA failed to accommodate her disability afterwards. She also claims to have faced disparaging remarks at work that created a hostile environment, and that the VA retaliated against her after she filed a separate equal employment opportunity charge when she was passed over for promotion. The court allows the technician’s retaliation and failure to accommodate claims stand without granting her judgment, and grants the VA judgment on her interference and discrimination claims.
