Under the ADA, 12 mos of leave is a considered reasonable accommodation. Lots of case law on this. It’s very, very difficult for an employer to establish undue hardship. Case law based on the FEHA is even more generous. Pretty surprising for a CA employee to take this position. Go see a lawyer. This isn’t a battle they can likely win. You can usually settle via a demand letter and mediation so you don’t have a public record of suing your employer. Good luck! I’m sorry this happened to you.
