In a case of procedural ping-pong, a federal judge has vacated an order reopening an employment action against a division of Mitsubishi, instead giving the plaintiff an opportunity to challenge a previous ruling that dismissed the case without prejudice.

U.S. District Chief Judge Joy Flowers Conti of the Western District of Pennsylvania granted Mitsubishi Electric Power Products’ motion for reconsideration of the court’s order reopening plaintiff Nathanael M. Nyamekye’s employment discrimination case.
