Legal Question in Business Law in Oregon

Yes, you are still part of it, until you get yourself dismissed from it. If you were named as a defendant solely because of your position in the company, and not because of something you specifically did (your specific conduct), you can file a motion to dismiss the case as to you.

Your employer probably wants you out of the lawsuit, as a laid off employee will probably not be the best witness for the company and might even be hostile to the company.
