Intel antisemitism lawsuit dismissed
Feb 20, 2025 1:01 PM

NEW YORK (Reuters) - A lawsuit in which a Jewish former employee of Intel ( INTC ) accused the chipmaker of firing him after he complained about an openly antisemitic supervisor has been dismissed.

Lawyers for Intel ( INTC ) and the anonymous plaintiff John Doe, a former vice president of engineering and onetime Israeli Defense Forces soldier, filed a stipulation of dismissal on Thursday in Manhattan federal court.

Doe's legal team included the Anti-Defamation League, in that group's first lawsuit against a major Fortune 500 company targeting antisemitism in the workplace.

It is unclear whether the parties settled. The dismissal was with prejudice, meaning the case cannot be brought again.

According to the complaint, Intel ( INTC ) fired Doe last April in a purported cost-cutting move not long after assigning him to report to Alaa Badr, vice president of customer success and an Egyptian native.

Doe said he was uncomfortable working with Badr, citing Badr's support for anti-Israel online posts, including posts cheering deaths of Israelis and IDF soldiers, and complaining about "so many Israeli employees in our company."

Lawyers for Doe, Intel ( INTC ) and the other defendants did not immediately respond to requests for comment.

Intel ( INTC ), based in Santa Clara, California, has said it has a longstanding culture of diversity and inclusion, and does not tolerate hate speech.

Doe had asked to maintain his anonymity, because revealing his name could lead to harassment and physical violence, but a judge rejected that request in October.

The judge said the emotionally and politically charged nature of the case, and risk of further discrimination, did not overcome "the people's right to know who is using their courts."

Doe had been appealing that decision.

The case is Doe v Intel Corp ( INTC ) et al, U.S. District Court, Southern District of New York, No. 24-06117.
