Brooks v. City of Los Angeles CA2/8
Plaintiff Mark Brooks had been employed as a police officer by defendant City of Los Angeles for over 20 years when he was diagnosed with prostate cancer. His cancer treatments required him to take medical leave a number of times between October 2009 and March 2013, but at times he was able to perform his job with work restrictions imposed by his doctor. Plaintiff retired in March 2013. Following his retirement, a workers’ compensation qualified medical examiner determined that plaintiff was “not able to perform any of his . . . customary occupational duties” and was permanently disabled.
