Judge allows malicious prosecution claim in attorney's countersuit against McElroy Deutsch
Briefly

Attorney Nicole Alexander's countersuit against McElroy Deutsch gains momentum as a judge allows her to add a malicious prosecution claim, intensifying allegations of defamation and retaliation.
"It may be great sport for McElroy to destroy a former employee's life, but this claim was wrongful when it was filed, and it is tortious to maintain it," stated Jeffrey Pollock, Alexander's lawyer.
Alexander argues she was unaware of any wrongdoing and believes her firing was due to marital-status discrimination after her husband, Dunlea, was implicated in embezzlement.
The legal saga unfolds with Alexander's claims being consolidated with her husband Dunlea's separate embezzlement case, raising issues of workplace discrimination and retaliation.
