Former Cavaliers Exec VP & CFO Mozelle Jackson, who was fired by the team on Thursday, has "filed a lawsuit accusing the organization's officials of threatening to ruin her career after she saw employees deleting evidence related to a disabled employee's potential discrimination claim," according to Cory Shaffer of the Cleveland PLAIN DEALER. Jackson's lawsuit "seeks at least $25,000 in damages and a chance to go before a jury." Jackson was fired on Thursday, and her profile was "not on the team's website Friday afternoon." The Cavs "issued a statement Saturday morning saying the lawsuit was full of 'intentionally twisted, inaccurate and fabricated claims,' and that the organization will not pay 'ransom-like sums.'" The suit claims that Jackson "oversaw the organization's finances, human resources and legal matters" ( Cleveland PLAIN DEALER, 5/12 ).
