A jury awarded her damages, and the City appealed, arguing insufficient evidence and improper admission of \"me-too\" testimony. The appellate court affirmed the jury's verdict, finding the evidence sufficient to support the hostile work-environment claim and that the City failed to preserve its objection to the \"me-too\" testimony, which was not plain error. The court also granted Ms. McKinney's motion for attorney fees on appeal and remanded for their determination.","primaryTopic":"employment-law","topicSlugs":["employment-law","civil-procedure","evidence","appellate-procedure","standard-of-review"],"outcomeNorm":"unknown","officialSourceUrl":"https://www.courts.mo.gov/file.jsp?id=137534","detailUrl":"https://ott.law/missouri-courts/opinions/natalie-mckinney-v-city-of-kansas-city-missouri-d81339","relatedPracticeAreas":[{"slug":"employment","label":"Employment Law","href":"/practice-areas/employment","score":32,"source":"tag","url":"https://ott.law/practice-areas/employment"},{"slug":"litigation","label":"Civil Litigation","href":"/practice-areas/litigation","score":12,"source":"topic","url":"https://ott.law/practice-areas/litigation"}],"role":"appellant"}]}
