In Baran v. ASRC Federal, a federal jury in Camden awarded $3.5 million on March 7 to a woman who claimed her former employer made false and defamatory statements about her to a federal agency.
According to court documents, plaintiff Anna Baran worked as a software engineer at ASRC Federal in Moorestown, a defense contractor, in January 2013, when a company manager reported to Moorestown police that Baran had threatened to bring a gun to work and shoot three people. The manager also told police that Baran said, “Don’t be surprised if this building goes up,” according to the suit. Baran maintained that she never made any such statements.
