## Summary

Former FX writer Diara Bradley has sued the Disney-owned network, alleging disability discrimination, unsafe working conditions and unpaid wages. She says she was dismissed after seeking medical accommodations and raising concerns, including an alleged incident in which an overworked colleague brought a knife to work.

Bradley filed the lawsuit on 30 September in Santa Monica Superior Court. She says she worked as an associate writer and producer from August 2021 until her termination in June, worked 50 to 60 hours a week without proper pay or meal breaks, and was not accommodated for chronic migraines and back pain. The claims have not been tested in court; FX was contacted for comment.
