The U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit has partially revived a New York City employee’s allegations that her managers discriminated against her, harassed her, and then retaliated against her when she complained.

The panel—composed of Circuit Judges Rosemary Pooler and Denny Chin and U.S. Senior Judge Richard K. Eaton of the United States Court of International Trade, sitting by designation—said U.S. District Judge Laura Taylor Swain of the Southern District of New York was correct in her dismissal of significant portions of a complaint brought by Robin Collymore, a former Department of Information Technology and Telecommunications project manager.
