Tech executive wins $2.75M after woman breaks $97K settlement deal with public assault claims
Michael Fitzgerald has been awarded $2.75 million after Ronda McNae breached a confidentiality agreement. Despite having settled with him earlier, McNae's public accusations of serious misconduct violated their pact. The court determined her actions severely harmed Fitzgerald's professional image and caused significant financial losses. The appeals court confirmed the lower court's ruling, emphasizing the impact of McNae's defamatory claims on Fitzgerald's career.
