A non-equity partner fired from former New Jersey Gov. Donald DiFrancesco's firm alleges in a whistleblower and sexual harassment complaint that she was dismissed for filing an ethics grievance against a judge who was a "political ally, friend and crony" of the law firm. Michele D'Onofrio's lawsuit also says that she and other women complained about unwelcome sexual comments and touching by DiFrancesco, but no corrective action was taken. The suit names the firm, not individual partners.

A lawyer fired from former New Jersey Gov. Donald DiFrancesco’s firm alleged in a whistle-blower and sexual harassment complaint Wednesday that she was dismissed for filing an ethics grievance against a judge who was a pal of the partners.
And the suit by Michele D’Onofrio says a comment by DiFrancesco about her breasts — he denies he said it — was part of the harassment.
