Casper, Wyo. • A former employee of a Wyoming occupational therapy office alleges the owner of the business made her take Scientology courses as a condition of her employment.
Julie A. Rohrbacher filed suit in federal court Dec. 17 against Teton Therapy, a group of physical and occupational therapy offices in four Wyoming locations.
Rohrbacher claims in court documents that owner Jeff McMenamy declined to promote her and then forced her to resign in 2013, after she refused to enroll in Church of Scientology courses.
Rohrbacher sued under the Civil Rights Act of 1964, which prohibits religious harassment at work.
