Wal-Mart has apparently settled a lawsuit brought by an Upshur County man who alleged he was wrongfully terminated from his position as a maintenance associate in its Buckhannon store.
Larry Zickefoose’s Americans with Disabilities Act lawsuit was filed last year in Upshur County Circuit Court, but was removed to federal court by Wal-Mart, which claimed it is a citizen of Delaware and Arkansas.
Mediation was scheduled to take place until Dec. 31, and a stipulation of dismissal was filed Jan. 11. Terms were not disclosed, though Wal-Mart wrote in its removal notice that the amount of controversy exceeded $75,000.
