Billesdon v Wells Fargo Federal Appeal or-l arguments heard yesterday in District 4

Or-l arguments were finally heard in district 4 (Charlotte) regarding Wells Fargo's appeal of the Billesdon case. Here is the audio file - https://www.ca4.uscourts.gov/OAarchive/mp3/25-1495-20260505.mp3

Its about 1 hour long and well worth listening to.

The 3 judge panel seemed perplexed why they would let go someone who brought into the bank over 60M in revenue, and the timing of his addition to layoff list was very suspect.

If you are unfamiliar with the case, here is the $22,000,000 jury decision handed down in Charlotte NC against Wells Fargo in 2025: https://law.justia.com/cases/federal/district-courts/north-carolina/ncwdce/3:2023cv00160/111371/78/
and

Its the same pattern -a disabled Wells Fargo employee, needed wfh accommodation, bank said no, then fired him for asking.

If you fit the same pattern, know that you have a very limited timeline to file a charge against the company - seek legal counsel asap

@b6 Nice try, CF.

Based on the nature of the questions it looks like the verdict is going to stand.

The banks "RTO" mandate is on shaky ground.

There is now a 3-6 month period for the non-verbal arguments and the judges to make a final decision, and then the case is returned to the lower court.

Because of the nature of this case and a unanimous jury verdict, the timing of this case may be much shorter.

An hour that you call well worth listening to.

You need to get some better hobbies
