Greenlight's alleged former head of macro is hoping to get at least $5 million from David Einhorn, claiming age discrimination

Greenlight's David Einhorn is in a legal fight with a former employee.Brendan McDermid/ ReutersJames Fishback, the former Greenlight analyst who said he was the head of macro, filed an arbitration claim against his old firm.Fishback is asking to be awarded at least $5 million from David Einhorn, who he claims discriminated against him.Greenlight has said in previous legal filings that Fishback was unproductive and did not make trades on his own.The latest twist in the fight between former Greenlight analyst James Fishback and his old boss David Einhorn is an arbitration filing from the young provocateur stating he was paid less than he should have been because he was "a kid."Fishback's filing, submitted to the American Arbitration Association in late September, asks arbitrators to award him at least $5 million for alleged age discrimination, though the 24-page filing spends most of its time outlining the "defamation" Fishback believes he has faced because Greenlight has said he was never the head of macro at the firm.Fishback has been a thorn in Einhorn's side since he left to start his own firm, publicly challenging his former boss on Twitter about his Tesla short position and goading him about recent performance.
