Danny W. v. Peabody Coal Co.

Type of Case: Retaliatory Discharge
Location: St. Clair County, Illinois
Result: $1,600,000.00 jury verdict

Danny W. was an employee of Peabody Coal Company who suffered a heart attack while working the mine. White filed a workers compensation claim against his employer and was subsequently terminated from employment from the defendant. White alleged that the termination was in retaliation for filing his workers compensation claim. The company claimed that the plaintiff was terminated because of a mine closure and that 20 other employees were terminated at the same time and the termination had no relationship to the plaintiff’s workers compensation claim. The jury disagreed.
