PHILADELPHIA – A Third Circuit U.S. Court of Appeals panel on Jan. 4 ordered a new trial in an employment discrimination case against United Parcel Service Inc. (UPS) after finding that a federal judge in New Jersey abused his discretion when dismissing the woman’s action as a sanction for her failure to produce original copies of two doctors’ notes until after a mistrial was declared (Laureen Bull v. United Parcel Service Inc., No. 10-4339, 3rd Cir.).
