Jill Beaver was an employee at RGIS Inventory Specialists. She became ill while on vacation with acute sinusitis, bronchitis, and an ear infection. She was prescribed an antibiotic by a physician, who indicated that she should not fly on a airplane due to the danger it pose to her eardrum. Beaver did not advise her company of the situation until the day before her planned return date and did not give them the details of her diagnosis. Due to complications rescheduling her flight, Beaver could not return to work until almost a week after she was scheduled. She was fired upon her return. She filed a lawsuit against RGIS alleging that the termination of her employment violated the FMLA. Did it?
