Two former Morrison & Foerster lawyers who sued the firm claiming it discriminates against pregnant women and new mothers are seeking to block Morrison & Foerster’s request for employment records at other law firms where they’ve worked.

Attorneys at Sanford Heisler Sharp representing plaintiffs Sherry William and Joshua Ashley Klayman have asked the federal magistrate judge overseeing their lawsuit to quash subpoenas seeking their personnel files from Freshfields Bruckhaus Deringer and Linklaters, respectively.
