The lawsuit claims that Gibbs unlawfully fired an adviser just one day before the adviser was scheduled to undergo amputation surgery related to an advanced diabetes diagnosis. The incident reportedly took place last summer. This legal action comes exactly one week before Gibbs, who represents Harlem, faces a competitive primary.
