I was fired from a job in Massachusetts on June 3, 2002. I filed a
discrimination complaint against my employer in July, 2002. In November,
2002 I applied for and received Social Security disability . The Social
Security Administration determined that I became disable on June 3, 2002,
the day I got fired. Does that prevent me from filing discrimination
charges against my employer? I did not claim to be disabled right up to
the time I got fired, and I am not seeking front or back pay. Please
refer to King v. Thomas Memorial Hospital. This case is similar to mine,
except it went by the West Virginia guidelines.
