A Canadian banker who claims he was harassed and later fired by Mitsubishi UFJ Morgan Stanley Securities Co. for taking paternity leave appeared in a Tokyo court Wednesday to argue his case.

Glen Wood, who is suing the brokerage, alleges the Tokyo-based venture between Japan’s biggest bank and the U.S. securities giant treated him unfairly after he took time off to care for his newborn son. The firm contests his claim.
