Before joining the office that he will now lead, Mr. Berman was hired by Lawrence E. Walsh to serve in the independent counsel's office in Washington when it was investigating the Iran-Contra affair. As a private lawyer, he has helped to run a court-appointed monitorship of a New York City carpenters' union that had been infiltrated by the mob, and has overseen several complex civil litigations. From 1993 to 1995, Mr. Donoghue, served as a paratrooper in the 82nd Airborne Division and spent the next five years on active duty in the Army's Judge Adjutant General Corps where he worked as a prosecutor, judge and defense lawyer. His most recent job was as the chief counsel for litigation at CA Technologies, a computer software and systems company in Midtown Manhattan. In 2000, Mr. Donoghue went to work as a federal prosecutor on Long Island, which, like Brooklyn, sits within the Eastern District of New York. There, he worked on several cases related to the street gang Mara Salvatrucha, or MS-13, an organization that Mr. Trump has attacked in speeches and singled out for prosecution.

An employee cannot be terminated for being part of a protected class, refusing sexual advances, as retaliation, or for being a whistleblower. If the employee is terminated for any of these reasons, he or she is the victim of wrongful termination. 6. Whistleblower Claims. If you work for a government agency or a company that receives government funding of any kind, you have the right to report events of company or supervisor wrongdoing to a party that can do something about the wrongdoing. Your rights to anonymity and employment protection are protected under the Whistleblower laws in New York City. 7. Family Leave Act.

Big Number $4 million. That's how much Cuomo was reportedly paid for his memoir, according to the Times. Publisher Crown Publishing Group, an imprint of Penguin Random House, said in March it has "paused active support" in promoting Cuomo's books as the governor has become embroiled in multiple controversies. Key Background The allegations about Cuomo's book are also being investigated as part of the New York State Assembly's impeachment inquiry into the governor, lawmakers said following the initial Times report. James has already been conducting a separate investigation into a series of sexual misconduct allegations against the governor—which he has denied —which include allegations of groping that have also been referred to the Albany Police Department. The allegations against Cuomo and his book are the latest in a series of scandals to befall the Democratic governor in recent months, in addition to the sexual misconduct claims and allegations Cuomo's office mishandled data on Covid-19 nursing home deaths.

Each type of employment law issue may come with different types of remedies. However, in general, most employment law issues can receive the following relief from the court: Reinstatement of employment and benefits Reimbursement of medical premiums Attorney's fees Reimbursement of medical and other related expenses. Back pay Future pay Pain and suffering Emotional distress Review of company policy and revamping of policies Punitive damages Certain issues, such as whistleblower claims, may come with other types of remedies. For instance, in New York City, a whistleblower who files a successful claim can receive 15% to 25% of any recovery when the state intervenes in the case. If the state chooses not to intervene and the whistleblower continues with the claim on his or her own, the claim can receive 25% to 30% of the recovery. In addition, in wage and hour cases, any settlement issued by the court is entitled to treble damages. That means if the damages were 2 million dollars, the plaintiff is entitled to 8 million dollars (or 2 million and 3×2 million).

Typically, the White House acts in the first months of an administration to fill many of the country's 93 United States attorney's offices. But President Trump has waited so long in making his choices for several districts, including those based in Manhattan, Brooklyn and Newark, that their acting leaders were running against a legal limit of 300 days in office. Even though Mr. Berman and Mr. Donoghue were appointed by Mr. Sessions under special executive authority, they were widely considered to be President Trump's top choices. They will serve in their interim roles for either 120 days or until they are formally nominated. Until recently, Mr. Berman, 58, was a comanaging shareholder of the New Jersey office of the law firm Greenberg Traurig, which has a tradition of hiring Republican luminaries like Rudolph W. Giuliani, the former mayor of New York. A longtime New Jersey resident who now lives in New York, Mr. Berman worked in the United States attorney's office in Manhattan from 1990 to 1994 and was best known for having prosecuted a cutting-edge computer crimes case against a group of hackers known as the Masters of Deception.
