Shortly thereafter, Cabrera requested a brief medical leave from on or around November 30, 2023, to on or around December 4, 2023. According to the lawsuit, Schuler approved this request. Cabrera alleges she underwent surgery for her epilepsy on or around November 30, 2023, took that day and the following day off and returned to work on the next business day, around December 4, 2023. She says that, because of the company’s earlier denial, she had to delay the surgery and forgo most of the recovery period recommended by her doctors.  Â
