| Handbook Snafu Resuscitates FMLA Claim Frost Brown Todd LLC  Feb. 18, 2015 "[The employee] argued the [employer] was 'equitably estopped' from denying his FMLA eligibility based on that clear handbook misrepresentation. [He] further alleged he reasonably relied on that handbook provision to his detriment because he sought medical treatment prior to completing his work assignment based on the handbook's definition of FMLA eligibility. He thought he was eligible. [The] court accepted [the employee's] argument. In doing so, it characterized the [employer's] handbook passage as an 'unambiguous and unqualified statement' of the [employer's] FMLA eligibility criteria." [Tilley v. Kalamazoo County Road Commission, No. 14-1679 (6th Cir. Jan. 26, 2015)] |
