Ewa Ledzinska from Kildare town, a former Lidl worker who sued the retail chain over an alleged back injury, photographed in a gym during a workout. The photographs were presented in court as evidence for Lidl.A former Lidl worker has withdrawn her personal injuries claim against the supermarket after the High Court was shown a video of her doing vigorous exercise at a gym.
The 42-year-old, who lives in Kildare town, had sued her former employer, Lidl Ireland, claiming she sustained a severe back injury and is in constant back pain as a result of her working conditions at the Newbridge Lidl branch. She has not worked since and told Mr Justice Mícheál P O’Higgins she is now on an invalidity pension and said she has pain, “problems moving” and wakes for two to three hours every night.Mr Fox put it to her that she told the judge she was only able to do gentle Pilates. “You didn’t tell the judge about this. It’s very very far away from gentle Pilates,” counsel said.
She agreed it was not gentle Pilates and said she started to go to the gym last February but had a break in March because it was so sore for her before resuming gym work again. At this stage Mr Justice Míchéal P O’Higgins intervened and said he would adjourn for a short time as there were issues to be discussed between the parties. He advised Ms Ledzinska to listen to her legal advisers.
