A swim coach reported that one of her assistant coaches was engaging in sexually inappropriate behavior with minors on the swim team. Her public employer refused to do anything to correct the situation and she resigned from her job rather than sit by and watch the young team members be harmed. Partners Leslie Levy and Jean Hyams won the jury trial, resulting in a six-figure award against the municipality even though the swim coach suffered no wage loss.
