If it disturbs you so much then perhaps you should look for employment elsewhere. By your post it is obvious the situation is frowned upon only by you and not the employer. Unless you can add more info, this appears nothing more than a personal issue.

Before anyone can give you a legal opinion, you will need to elaborate and provide more detail. I initially question what you mean by "verbal harassment"? A busy hostess only needs to tell the person she is busy and cannot hold a conversation at the time. If the patron persists in interfering...

Thank goodness this was only a teacher. If this situation had involved a policeman, Billy could potentially have been tasered!! I must play devil's advocate here, as the story is one sided and not from the teacher's perspective. This sounds more like Billy was defiant and not following the...

He was simply a mean employer. Nothing illegal about that. He was using you and you put up with it for awhile since you needed the job. Thankfully you wised up and quit. Unfortunately, due to the recession getting a new job may be tough. Yet, when you do find a new job it will be better -...

Have you already offered payments to the owner and he refused? If you are willing to pay the debt try to work out an arrangement prior to court. If the owner accepts, then the civil case can be dismissed. If it goes to court, most likely you will first be given the chance to mitigate with the...

What would your fiance sue for? In what manner has the police department been negligent or done something illegal which has done your husband harm? In what manner has your fiance been damaged? Anyone can file a civil suit if they wish. The real question is "will they win". After reading...

Your situation does not include any "legal" issues. I would suggest you meet with your former supervisor to discuss the situation. If the supervisor is agreeable to review the situation and finds you innocent, then perhaps your job would be reinstated. Hopefully the management of the...

Perhaps they were planning on firing you and just had not done so yet. The termination report is solely for the use of the company and evidently they felt you had not improved after the 30 days of probation. You are understandably upset, yet you shouldn't worry about the termination paper...

No. You quit your job by choice. The police department did no wrong. They did not prevent your fiance from taking the FMLA. There is no law that I'm aware of that says they have to be happy about allowing an employee to take FMLA. It may have been a better career decision for your fiance to...

In most situations, unless an employment contract is had, an employee may be fired without cause being given. Demand to see the evidence. Since this retail establishment has a loss prevention department, they certainly must also have a human relations department. If your girlfriend values her...

Unless he was injured or paid medical fees, he has no claim. If the action occurred as you described, assault charges should have been pressed. You may still be able to after-the-fact. I personally would. Your son should have a word with the Human Resource manager if this company has one...

I believe you are indeed correct! I envy your living atmosphere. The best my two Russian Wolfhounds can do in our backyard is catch a squirrel or maybe a stray opossum. Though they are pets, I have to admit it would be a thrill to see them tangle with a coyote!! I hope all works out for...

You first need to become familiar with the animal ordinance within your community. In the County where I live, dogs and cats even while roaming on the owner's property must be on leash and be under the direct control of the owner at all times. In general, the dog owner may be able to avoid...

I doubt the company has a policy that stipulates "Customers are allowed to insult employees". It is more of a customer's right if he/she chooses to insult an employee. Management can then decide to side with the customer or the employee. Though I understand your viewpoint, I feel you need...

I am unaware of Iowa's laws regarding dogs. Yet, I govern myself not necessarily by the laws but the public perception. I own two large Russian Wolfhounds. They are very gentle as a pet, yet can be extremely ferocious and dangerous under specific conditions. Don't expect to use this as a...

Thus it is plausible that the son showed his father your facebook. Nothing illegal about that. No, and you probably don't have a job anymore either...

Small claims is usually only up to $5,000. You would sue in Circuit Court for an amount exceeding $5,000. I assume she is also on the deed? That could be sticky, consult with an attorney for sound advice. It would be up to you to collect. The courts do not help with the collection of a...

Your reputation will only be damaged if the accusations are found to be true. If the tapes prove you innocent, then your reputation will not suffer any damage.

An agreement to a shortsale does not prevent the foreclosure proceedings from happening. I assume she has missed more than a couple of monthly payments? Normally a foreclosure takes a long time. A shortsale can take quite a while also. Hopefully the shortsale will be completed prior to the...

Probably yes if you can show negligence on the part of the home owner. Keep in mine that you sue for money. How much was out of pocket for your stitches? Let's say $1,000. How much is reasonable for pain and suffering? Let's say $5,000. Now you must pay approx. $100 for filing the suit and...
