In an action against plaintiff's former employer alleging violations of the Family Medical Leave Act of 1993 (FMLA), 29 U,S,C, section 2601 et seq., the district court's dismissal of the complaint, on the basis that the medical certification supporting plaintiff's request for leave was "invalid," is reversed and remanded where by alleging that employer terminated her instead of affording her a chance to cure any deficiencies in her medical certification, plaintiff has stated a claim that employer violated the Medical Leave Act.
