Genco Shipping Is Sued After Greek Manager Swears At Turkish Staffer Status in November

By Matthew Russell Lee, Patreon Maxwell Book
BBC-Guardian UK - Honduras - ESPN NY Mag

SDNY COURTHOUSE, May 7 – Marcus Mehmet Erkan sued Genco Shipping & Trading Limited for discrimination against him as a Turkish national and a Muslim.

      On May 6, U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York Judge Gregory H. Woods held a proceeding. Inner City Press covered it.  

Erkan's complaint says that after one of Genco's ships had a problem, Operations Director Bill Firaris "who is Greek/non-Turkish" yelled "F-ing Turks" and more.  

 Judge Woods said that fact discovery is due by September 12, with a status conference on November 14.

The case is  Erkan v. Genco Shipping & Trading Limited, 22-cv-186 (Woods)
