Description
The State of California Department of Rehabilitation (State and agency) appeals from a judgment awarding Joyce Watson (Watson), a civil service employee of the State, damages of $1.5 million after a jury trial. Watson proceeded to trial on two statutory causes of action for race and age discrimination in violation of Government Code sections 12940 and 12941, and a third cause of action for breach of the covenant of good faith and fair dealing. The State seeks reversal of the judgment and dismissal of the action; alternatively a remittitur limiting the damages award or a new trial. Although we agree with the State that damages for breach of the covenant of good faith and fair dealing may not be recovered by this state employee, we affirm the judgment on the statutory causes of action and find that they support the damages found and awarded by the jury.
