OGDEN (AP) — A former employee for a Utah court who won a sexual harassment claim against a Weber County judge has filed an appeal seeking additional damages in the case.
The Standard-Examiner reports former Weber County Justice Court administrator Marcia Eisenhour filed a lawsuit in 2010 saying Judge Craig Storey sexually harassed her and county commissioners retaliated against her for bringing up the allegations.
U.S. District Court rulings had cleared Weber County and the commissioners of liability but imposed a $184,000 judgment against Storey for causing Eisenhour emotional distress.
Eisenhour's suit is now before a Denver appeals court.
