Romulo v. Seattle Pub. Utilities
- In 2017, Seattle Public Utilities (SPU) terminated Romulo’s employment. In 2019, Romulo initiated a complaint asserting (1) hostile work environment, (2) retaliation, (3) wrongful discharge, and (4) harassment. At trial, the jury returned a verdict in favor of SPU. Romulo appealed. This court affirmed the jury’s determination that Romulo was not terminated in violation of WLAD, but remanded the retaliation claim to the extent it was based on employment actions short of termination. On remand, the jury again ruled in favor of SPU. Romulo appeals. COA #867547. King County Superior Court No. 18-2-11482-9.
