Question - If a person is terminated prior to the end of the 12 week period of FMLA by verbal communication only due to a possible disability, does this or can this fall under ADA? If it does fall under ADA, what steps would I need to take next to pursue this issue?

    In this situation, the termination could violate the FMLA or the ADA.

    The FMLA is handled by the department of labor and they may be able to give the employee help.

    The ADA is handled by the EEOC or an equivalent state agency, which can give information to the employee.

    Otherwise, you could always contact an attorney who represents employees for help.

    Good Luck!
