well it's not defamation, slander or libel if you did actually have a warrant out for you and she turned you in. DSL is for something that is untrue. This situation was not. Why you discussed personal business with her is the issue. Why you didn't call the court yourself is the issue. You...

sometimes it is very hard to prove that something DIDN"T happen. Obviously you have some type of text from someone stating it didn't -- can't you go back to them and get them to state it again? Trust, once broken is VERY hard to recover from the other person you are trying to prove something...

If you were truly forced to stay and wait sometimes up to 20 minutes and it wasn't just "de minimus" (say less than a few minutes) as you went out the door, then you need to file a wage claim for unpaid time with the state. Hopefully you recorded this time as it happened.

do you have access to the actual phone? if not, I would say it is virtually impossible without some type of backup or sync to the cloud installed prior to the text creation and access to that account online. If you do have access to the phone, it seems like there are things you can do with the...

well, you might consider that it is possible that he is not as potty-trained as one might think and this is helping that situation...and one of the best ways to do so with young boys is the 'go naked' method LOL. An 11 yr old daughter should be old enough to understand that there is a HUGE...

What CVS did/does/was sued for is a totally different scenario with different facts and circumstances than this employer. While the settlement could set a precedent, it doesn't automatically mean bag checks off the clock are an auto-win for the employee(s) in all cases..it looks like the...

The only thing I see is calling the local Health department if food/dishes aren't being handled properly. Otherwise, nothing you stated is illegal, maybe bad business practice, etc. But nothing you can pursue with a personal claim. My DD works in that industry and scheduling, calling you in...

Never seen that before either personally or professionally...whether it is illegal or not, it seems very unethical. And not very smart to try to apply that happen in one state to another. I would expect the deposit and rent to cover your "company charges" -- those are a cost of doing business...

Is he a licensed bonded tow truck driver or just your friend's neighbor that you were trying to get a cheap tow? Why did you not call a real tow truck whose employee would have a hookup checklist? Sounds like you chose the wrong person and I doubt he has any insurance coverage (did you ask...

(people believe/hear what they want to hear and don't want to believe that he could have pursued rights to his child during those 4 years and refused to give them up for someone else to adopt and could have paid child support even then - he made his choices so I have to agree that) How long...

But realize that the customer not only heard your profanity, but also whatever you were "venting" about -- if it was employment related (supervisor, coworker, other customers, product, etc) and this is a customer service/front facing position, that will probably be taken into account. And you...

you would have to prove they took it away strictly because you took maternity leave...not because of any other business reasons (such as a pay/benefits review where they noted only one employee at or near your level was getting the benefit and the ROI wasn't what they thought or because they...

Block her and don't accept friend requests from people you don't know. If it's addressed to you and you have others opening your mail, ask them to ignore it or to pass any attorney communications to you without opening them.

"wrongful termination" is a very specific legal term that a lot of people use incorrectly -- see Wrongful dismissal - Wikipedia Glad your prior employer was willing to give you a 2nd chance but he didn't have to under any employment law. Just so you know for the future.

It's enough that you "haven't been on good terms with my store manager" to terminate you regardless of a customer complaint or any complaints you or others made to higher management. It's called "at will" employment. There are some exceptions IF your complaint is about legally protected...

Agree with everything Jack posted and will add that the company can decide to treat lower level employees different than managers. Managers have much more discretion on how they handle things. Making lots of complaints about your manager (unless truly a legal issue like sexual harassment or...

are you a US citizen? Obviously US DHS authorities (and others) already know about the illegal issues if they were questioning you about it. I don't see a US attorney taking your case unless (1) you can pay upfront or (2) they think there will be a big payoff to them in the end (40%+ of the...

wait - who lost their voice? why did it go from " he" to "me"? In a basic google question, I am finding lots of complications to this surgery and voice issues as a risk of performing it. As in most surgeries, you or he probably signed a notice of possible complications/risks. Seeing the...

Actually the DFEH is required to send them a full copy of your claim within something like 10 days after you file it (at least that is the federal EEOC deadline). The defending party has the right to know and defend against your claim during the investigation. They then are asked to provide a...

(personal response) You need to let her lead the way on what she wants to do. You shouldn't push or try to somehow now be a hero regarding something you just learned about. If anything, suggest counseling - and get some together/for yourself also to know how best to deal with any traumatic...
