Some cases have to be tried. Christman, Kelley & Clarke shareholder Matthew Clarke headed the trial team along with associate Matthew Mong against 7-Eleven franchisees in a eight day trial in Santa Maria, California. Christman, Kelley & Clarke prevailed in the trial obtaining money damages for the client. More importantly, the client's rights were vindicate and a strong message sent to the 7-Eleven franchisee that sexual harassment in the workplace will not be tolerated. The firm's motion for attorney fee is now pending before the court.
7-Eleven, the franchisor, settled before the trial started.
