Trop v. Sony Pictures Entertainment, Inc.

Plaintiff's statements that she had a fibroid removed and that she was hoping to become pregnant did not establish that employer was aware of pregnancy, and employee’s statement to employer at Christmas party that "[i]t looks like I get to have one of these," referring to a baby, was too ambiguous to place employer on notice of pregnancy. (However, the court notes in a footnote that Plaintiff didn't complain she was fired for attempting to become pregnant.)

2d Dist., Div. 5 No. B174101
