Proskauer Rose has asked a New York state court judge to dismiss entirely, with prejudice, a $10 million lawsuit brought against it by its former chief financial officer, who claims she was demoted and then fired after she returned to work following breast cancer treatment because of her age, her gender, and a supposed disability.
