Frank also described witnessing praying in the offices on several occasions. Frank felt that he was pressured into joining the religious affiliations of other staff members.
Frank sued on the basis of religion and gender and won the case. Brown emphatically denies the allegations and states her lawyers are reviewing the decision and determining their next move.
