Pregnant teacher files suit over Catholic school termination

Published February 04. 2019 05:33AM

SUNBURY (AP) — A pregnant Pennsylvania teacher who alleges that she was fired from her Catholic school job because the diocese was upset that she wasn’t married has filed suit contesting her termination.

Naiad Reich filed a breach of contract suit Friday in Northumberland County against the Roman Catholic Diocese of Harrisburg. She’s also seeking a permanent injunction that would reinstate her as a teacher at Our Lady of Lourdes Regional School in Coal Township, outside Shamokin.

Reich, who isn’t Catholic, said she was fired Nov. 30 after notifying the diocese that she and her boyfriend were expecting a baby in June but had no immediate plans to marry.

The diocese, which earlier said it doesn’t comment on personnel matters, said officials hadn’t seen the suit and couldn’t comment before reviewing the documents.

Christian's and Conservatives, they're all about controlling people's lives. Deviance, oppression & Pedophilia.
I really enjoy your disfunctional rants on Republicans. You are a hater with some serious need for long-term counseling and probably confinement to protect yourself and society. For you to turn everything into political hatred indicates your imbalance. Why can’t you read a book, or take a course,or listen to music to better spend your life. Educated people do not conduct themselves in this manner. At least your spelling is OK-give you that. Keep it up. You can be the daily poster-child for mental illness. You wouldn’t measure up to be even a pimple on President Trump’s a**. Good Luck to you!
Rambo? Great name. Glorifying an unstable, delusional murderer created by the Deviant Republican military. Not to mention fictional.
Thanks for the personal attack. Reinforces my point.
