Pro se Plaintiff, Katty Monlouis, is seeking representation in her discrimination action against her previous employer. Plaintiff’s Fourth Amended Complaint asserts nine claims: racial discrimination in violation of Title VII (Count I); hostile work environment in violation of Title VII (Count II); retaliation in violation of Title VII (Count III); wage violations in violation of the Fair Labor Standards Act (Count IV); wrongful termination / retaliatory discharge (Count V); interference with rights under the Family and Medical Leave Act (Count VI); Family and Medical Leave Act retaliation (Count VII); disability discrimination and failure to accommodate under the Americans with Disabilities Act (Count VIII); and retaliation under the Americans with Disabilities Act (Count IX). The case is in its early stages, with discovery opening on May 27, 2026, and set to close on January 4, 2027. Trial is set for May 3, 2027. Plaintiff’s deposition is set for September 21, 2026. Volunteer representation would entail representing Plaintiff during all pretrial proceedings and, if necessary, at trial. Alternatively, limited-scope representation would be appreciated. Plaintiff speaks English as a second language; therefore, familiarity and proficiency with French is encouraged.
