According to Reuters, the US government has sued Google over its treatment of an Army Reserve employee. The complaint claims the company failed to return him to his former role after a year of military leave. Moreover, it says Google never offered him a comparable job. Federal prosecutors filed the case on Thursday in a Manhattan federal court. It is a rare example of Washington suing a private employer under the Uniformed Services Employment and Reemployment Rights Act of 1994, known as USERRA.
