Legal Question in Employment Law in Arkansas
Wrongful Termination/Discrimination
I was fired from my job 2 weeks prior to my 90 day probation period being up. I was told by my supervisor that it was because I was a convicted felon. I told them of my intent to plead guilty to a felony prior to being hired. Also I discovered shortly afterward that 3 of my coworkers were also convicted felons. Do I have a case for wrongful termination and discrimination?

It depends on to whom you compare yourself whether or not you have a claim for employment discrimination. If you would like more information about the federal laws which prohibit employment discrimination, you can visit my website, www.memphisemploymentlawyer.net.
