Re: wrong terminated because of lack of communications

If you're claiming termination was because of some disability you have, and you have some evidence that was the motive, then you may have a claim under the discrimination laws. You'll have to overcome the obvious problem that: they hired you two weeks ago and you had the disability then; so how do you think you can prove the termination was 'because of' the same disability?
