A separation deal allegedly asked her to swear she'd filed nothing - she already had
A longtime Citi employee sued the bank over harassment. What happened next, she alleges, was retaliation.
A woman who spent more than fifteen years at Citigroup and Citibank has accused the company of retaliating against her after she took it to court, according to a complaint filed August 5, 2026, in the US District Court for the Middle District of Florida.
The employee filed her first lawsuit - referred to in the new complaint as the "First Action" - on March 16, 2026, raising a sexual-harassment dispute and claims of sex-based pay discrimination. What followed, she alleges, was a series of moves designed to punish her for filing.
First came a separation agreement, delivered April 7, 2026. According to the complaint, one clause asked her to "represent and warrant that she had not filed, directly or indirectly, nor caused to be filed, any legal proceeding" against the company. She had filed one three weeks earlier. The filing says that representation "was inaccurate when Defendants delivered the agreement."
A revised agreement arrived May 11, 2026, six days after the company moved to compel arbitration in her first case, the complaint says. This version, she alleges, named her pending lawsuit by case number and tied her separation pay to a court order dismissing that case "with prejudice." According to the filing, she signed neither version.
