Two years later, McKesson fired Roby for abusing its attendance policy, although many of her absences were attributable to her psychiatric disability. Roby told Saamer the absences were related to her panic disorder, and that she was trying to get it stabilized. McKesson supervisors Christopher Rafter and Grover told Roby she was subject to termination for abuse of the absence program. McKesson HBOC changed its name to McKesson Corporation during the pendency of this litigation. McKesson filed a separate appeal (C048799) from the trial court's postjudgment award to Roby of $728,668. 75 for attorney fees.
