Suzanne Ruelas v. City of Baldwin Park, et al.

Summary

Plaintiff Suzanne Ruelas sued Baldwin Park after retiring in 2019. She alleges she was forced to resign after voicing complaints about decisions made by the city's finance director, in addition to being discriminated against due to her age and ethnicity after accusing the city's CEO of supposedly making racially insensitive comments. Baldwin Park maintains Ruelas only lodged her complaints after being denied a raise.
