My wife has spent the last 9 months battling a retaliation claim against her employer (school district). PERB just agreed she had a Prima Facie case and the PERB General Counsel has filed a complaint against the school district for violating California Government Code 3543.5.
PERB is arranging a settlement conference but my wife's union has not, to this point, provided any legal support (in fact, they told her she had no case). So, she has no idea what she can ask for in the settlement.
She previously developed a 13 point settlement agreement (mostly work condition changes, keeping the retaliating parties from communicating with her in the future, not being under their supervision, etc.) which the district agreed to and then reneged upon. The question is, even though she did not suffer any financial damage (union contract mandates pay and raises) but she did suffer significant mental distress and damage to her reputation, what can she ask for in the settlement (e.g., monetary, original settlement points, etc.)?
