Eric Crockett claims the city withheld the money when he refused to sign a separation agreement
Eric Crockett, a former deputy city manager and director of economic development for Chula Vista, is suing the city, alleging the municipality owes him thousands of dollars in unpaid severance after he was fired in December. According to the 26-page complaint filed last week in San Diego Superior Court, Crockett’s employment with the city ended on Dec. 5 during a meeting with City Manager Maria Kachadoorian and Assistant City Attorney Megan McClurg.
“It is reasonably anticipated that, once the City completes its investigation, the City will fabricate a purported reason to terminate ‘for cause,’ and take the position that the City is no longer required to make the Severance Payment to ,” the complaint said. Additionally, Crockett says he was discriminated against based on his gender. The complaint said Kachadoorian had carried out other terminations and that Crockett “was yet another male executive employee terminated by the City.
