Episode Details

A former deputy circuit court clerk in Wilson County is suing her boss, claiming she was fired for running against her in a local election. Ramona Sutton, who served for 11 years, says her termination was retaliation after challenging incumbent Clerk Debbie Moss in the Republican primary. Moss denies it, blaming insubordination and workplace bullying. The lawsuit paints a picture of escalating hostility as the election approached, with Sutton alleging she was isolated and let go the day after the results. Her attorney argues this was punishment for exercising her right to run for office, while Moss insists the firing was for legitimate reasons. Sutton is seeking reinstatement, back pay, and punitive damages, as the case pits political ambition against workplace loyalty—and the law will decide if her firing was retaliation or justified.
