Internal Auditor Sues Town for Wrongful Termination

town of Greenwich, Conn.

Former internal auditor for the town of Greenwich, Conn., Melinda Frame, is suing the town. Her complaint was filed last week in State Superior Court in Stamford.

Frame, who was hired in August of 2016, says the town interfered with her internal audit work and covered up problems in town departments. She was fired in August.

Frame’s complaint said she met resistance from “entrenched bureaucrats and politicians,” and that employees and management failed to cooperate with her audits, and both she and people who cooperated with her audits were victims of personal attacks. She is seeking damages in excess of $15,000, in addition to lost wages, back pay, future lost wages, lost benefits, compensation for emotional distress, and attorney’s fees.
