Intermittent Leave
Failure
to attempt to reschedule doctor's appointment
- KAYLOR v. FANNIN REGIONAL HOSPITAL
U.S. District Court Northern District of Georgia, 3 WH Cases2d
1856, 10/22/1996, No. 2:95-CV-0067-WCO
Employee alleged that his employer violated FMLA by denying
him intermittent leave for doctor's appointment but did not reasonably
attempt to reschedule appointment after he was told his absence
would leave employer with inadequate staffing. The employee provided
no evidence that he contacted doctor about rescheduling and it
appeared doctor would have been amenable to rescheduling. The
employee continually misled supervisor by claiming he would work
on day of appointment when he, in fact, never canceled appointment.
