A veteran law enforcement officer who spent more than 20 years working for the Alameda County DA's office says he was fired due to anti-Asian discrimination by DA Pamela Price.

Craig Chew filed a lawsuit Thursday against Alameda County alleging illegal practices including unlawful termination because he was Asian American.

Price has always denied the presence of anti-Asian bias in the office. 

Here's what we know.
