Deborah Wilkins has sued Western Kentucky University, where she worked as general counsel for over two decades, alleging age and sex discrimination and a concerted effort to damage her career and reputation.

The lawsuit, which Wilkins filed in Warren Circuit Court on Thursday, includes 13 counts ranging from breach of contract to “intentional infliction of emotional distress.” It alleges that Wilkins experienced discrimination on the basis of age and gender, retaliation for participation in protected activity, tortious interference with a contractual relationship, breach of contract and fraud.
