Davis Polk Was Sued For Discrimination Now Trashes Kaloma Cardwell For Revealing Secrets

By Matthew Russell Lee, Patreon
BBC - Guardian UK - Honduras - The Source

SDNY COURTHOUSE,  Dec 9 –  Kaloma Cardwell filed a racial discrimination case against his employer, the "white shoe" law firm of Davis Polk and Wardwell.

He'd been employed there from September 2014 through August 2018, then alleged that "defendants quarterbacked and permitted a playbook that marginalized, discriminated against and retaliated against Plaintiff, the only Black male associate in the Davis Polk's 2014 associate class." Then there was a delay in discovery.

 U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York Judge Gregory H. Woods held a proceeding on July 28. Inner City Press covered it.  

Amid Davis Polk complaints, Judge Woods granted a request to extended the discovery deadlines - but said that costs had to be paid to Davis Polk.

On November 13, Judge Woods held another conference in the case, one not listed in the Calendar Events section of PACER. Paul Weiss as counsel for Davis Polk had gotten amended complaint(s) filed on November 9 provisionally sealed, claiming that material in and annexed to them are in the protective order.

Now on December 9, Davis Polk has trashed what they call Cardwell's "continued refusal to return Firm material or produce documents he promised the Court would be forthcoming." They also chide him for filing material stamped "Confidential."

 The case is Cardwell v. Davis Polk and Wardwell LLP et al, 19cv10256 (Woods)
