8. 24CV00397 Lau, Crystal v. Feathers, Robin et al.

EVENT: Defendants’ Demurrer to the Second Amended Complaint

Second Cause of Action - Harassment Preliminarily, Defendants argue for the first time in the reply brief that ADHD is not a disability under FEHA. Because this legal issue was not raised in the moving papers, it will not be addressed here. (See American Indian Model Schools v. Oakland Unified School Dist. (2014) 227 Cal.App.4th 228, 275-276 [“We will not ordinarily consider issues raised for the first time in a reply brief.”]

The SAC sufficiently alleges Plaintiff was harassed “based on” her disability Plaintiff contends that the “based on” language does not necessarily require the harasser be aware of Plaintiff’s disability at the time the harassing conduct occurred. However, as it specifically pertains to disability, existing authority suggests Plaintiff must plead Defendants’ knowledge of the disability prior to the harassing conduct, see Pensinger v. Bowsmith, Inc., 6|Page
