The employment-discrimination case of Bobbie E. Burnett could become the first transgender-related discrimination case to be heard by a federal jury in the Eastern District of Pennsylvania.
Last month, both sides in the dispute filed court papers stating that preparations should be made for a jury trial, because efforts to settle the case have been unsuccessful.
Burnett, a city library assistant, claims she suffered ongoing workplace harassment and discrimination due to her transgender status.
She's suing the city and four coworkers for an unspecified amount of damages.
