I think you missed the point on why she didn't want to take medical leave - "As mentioned, I refuse to quit or to take medical leave as a response to the hostility; this is on Apple ER to resolve, not for me to hide from." [From an email that you linked to] That is very reasonable, I would do the same as it takes Apple off the hook for the charges against them since they could then just say "Ashley was suffering from X, Y or Z and needed time off". I would do the same. You very confidently state that she is lying. I can't tell what she is lying about, care to lay it out?
