Judge: UPMC must pay settlement to former secretary
Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, December 5, 2008
An Allegheny County, PA, judge set a deadline of December 5 for University of Pittsburgh Medical Center to pay a settlement to a former secretary who sued Magee-Womens Hospital for wrongful termination and a violation of the state's Whistleblower Law. Donna Kovacs and UPMC reached a settlement for an undisclosed amount in November as the trial was beginning. But the two sides have been squabbling since then about provisions in the settlement.
