A federal jury has awarded nearly $3.2 million in damages to a Black former worker at a Tesla factory in California.
FILE - Vehicles are parked outside the Tesla plant, in Fremont, Calif., on May 12, 2020. A federal jury on Monday, April 3, 2023, has awarded nearly $3.2 million in damages to a former Black worker at a Tesla factory California that has been at the epicenter of racial discrimination allegations hanging over the automaker run by billionaire Elon Musk. – A federal jury has awarded nearly $3.
But the eight-person jury in the latest trial, which lasted five days, arrived at a dramatically lower damages number than the $137 million Diaz won in his first trial held in San Francisco federal court. U.S. District Judge William Orrick reduced that award to $15 million,“If you had just looked at this verdict without knowing the verdict in the first trial, you would say this is a big win.
The case, which dates back to 2017, centers on allegations that Tesla didn't take action to stop a racist culture at its Fremont, California, factory, located about 40 miles southeast from San Francisco. Diaz, 53, alleged he was called the “n-word” more than 30 times, shown racist cartoons and told to “go back to Africa” during his roughly nine-month tenure at Tesla that ended in 2016.
Tesla has adamantly denied the allegations made in state court and lashed back by accusing the agency of abusing its authority.
