Ingram Micro Inc. alleged to have terminated employee for reporting harassment

Wrongful term 06

SHERMAN – A former operations supervisor for a Carrolton facility alleges he was terminated after reporting sexual harassment.

Jeramy S. Dearmon filed a complaint on Sept. 8 in the Sherman District of the Eastern District of Texas against Ingram Micro Inc., Ingram Micro Texas LP and Ingram Micro Texas LLC alleging that they violated Texas Commission on Human Rights Act and Title VII of the Civil Rights Act.

According to the complaint, the plaintiff alleges that he was hired by the defendants on Aug. 15, 2016, and on May 12, 2017, he was terminated from his employment without receiving any prior disciplinary actions. He alleges he reported sexual harassment in May and was terminated the same month.

The plaintiff holds Ingram Micro Inc., Ingram Micro Texas LP and Ingram Micro Texas LLC responsible because the defendants allegedly treated him differently in terms, conditions and privileges of employment and retaliated against him by terminating his employment in response to his complaint of defendant's purportedly discriminatory practices.

The plaintiff requests a trial by jury and seeks compensatory and exemplary damages, pre- and post-judgment interest, costs and attorney’s fees and such other legal and equitable relief. He is represented by Darren Wolf and Christianne Edlund of Law Office of Darren Wolf PC in Dallas.
