I now have my court fees waived and have filed and will have access to discovery since everything was on litigation hold, and the evidence on that HR call alone will open the case wide open, do you think they will settle or fight?

    Hi! Sooooo glad I found your channel. I have upcoming wrongful termination/retaliation/discrimination mediation on June 5th, with multiple defendants (county hospital/county and my ex employer). I have been waiting for mediation since December when my attorneys called telling me the defendants wanted to mediate. I was excited until finding out it would take 6 months for the actual date, but was told by my attorneys the mediator is one of the best in the state of California (retired employment defense trial attorney ). I have been waiting for this for months. I have so much direct evidence (video recordings where I alerted management I was recording-they laughed and didn’t care, emails, text messages, schedule proving job assignment comparisons, as well as the manager admitting of racial disparities being “the culture”, and so much more). When my attorney team reached out to me in Sept they advised that both defendants wanted mediation without doing any discovery and stated they feel they have enough evidence to go to bat in mediation. I’m so nervous, and just want to know if mediation before discovery is a good thing? The defendants asked for a motion to stay discovery until after mediation. I’m praying this is a good sign for me, and I do trust my attorneys. It just feels good to have reassurance from someone as skilled as you. Thank you for your time🎉!

    I have a question I believe I was discriminated against based of me being on disability after putting in a application. I had talked to the manager a few days later at the store that I had finished my application. I also mentioned that I am on disability the manager said that's fine I'll talk to the hiring manager. I have not heard back since mentioning I was on disability. Is this an act of discrimination? Or is this even legal?

    I'm so happy I found your page!!! I have a question.
    If one is taking legal action against their ex-employer for wrongful termination (discrimination) and the employer lies to the Dept of Labor so the ex-employee doesn't receive unemployment benefits. During the appeal hearing while under oath the ex-employer lies, contradicts, and unknowingly admits to their actions (however, the ex-employee actually wins the appeal and backpays the ex-employee) How big of an impact does the Dept of Labor ruling have on the case? Can this be used in court if the suit doesn't settle during the discovery? Would the ex-employer actions be considered perjury?

    • @JobAttorney
      @JobAttorney  Год назад +3

      Yes! I actually have a video on the channel I think about this. What you want to do is get the transcript or recording of that unemployment hearing.

    I have a question about case strategy- I recently had an employment discrimination complaint served against my employer, a city government. Local Human Relations Commission is managing the case, they're taking a neutral position at the moment, so they won't advise me on this. My employer supplied a false statement (they lied) in a few answers to the complaint. Mind you, not just a denial of an allegation, but a false statement about something they said I did, which I did not do. I have an audio recording in the form of a cellphone voicemail from my employer providing me with absolute evidence of my employers false statement. Even without this recording, I pretty much obliterated my employers defense against the allegations. Should I sit on this juicy piece of incriminating evidence until trial, and totally catch them in a lie, or is it best to reveal it in my rebuttal and cast doubt on my employers credibility right from jump street? Should I consult an employment attorney before I serve my rebuttal? I don't live far from NYC, do you handle cases in neighboring states? Maybe a reference? Thanks for any advice.

The AJ said (my witnesses is a bunch coworkers who doesn't like the supervisor got together, and discrimination didn't happen it was just a miscommunication between me and the supervisor also the agency gave new information in their supplemental investigation). The AJ made this ruling shortly after the agency attorney wanted the AJ to strike my brief and grant them summary judgment, the AJ denied their request ruled in my favor but gave them 2 weeks to respond. The agency attorney attacked had a tantrum and not only my character but the AJ too in his response. Yet summary judgment was ruled in their favor and told the agency to give me the FAD so I can appeal her ruling. I'm so confused and angry.
