Description

This is an appeal by defendant, Emerson Electric Company (Emerson) from a judgment in favor of plaintiff Eva E. Pickett (Pickett)
on her discrimination claim brought under the Missouri Human Rights Act (MHRA) § 213.010 RSMo (1986), et Seq. Pickett
alleged that Emerson violated that part of the MHRA which makes unlawful any retaliation or discrimination against a person
because that person has exercised rights under the Act. § 213.070(2) RSMo (1986). Specifically, Pickett alleged
that as a result of her previous claim alleging sexual discrimination in job promotion, Emerson required her to perform tasks
that she had not previously been asked to perform. Over the objection of Emerson, the case was tried before a jury which returned a verdict of $1 actual damages and $1,000
punitive damages. Additionally, Emerson was ordered by the court to pay attorney's fees and costs of $55,950 pursuant to §
213.111 RSMo (1986) which allows the court to award costs and reasonable attorney's fees to the prevailing party.
