Legal Question in Employment Law in California
Terminated due to past history
I had, about 3-1/2 years ago, made a few bad decisions regarding an ex-boyfriend and my driver's license; I dumped the boyfriend and got my license back in order about August of 1999. However, as per the DMV, it still shows up as a 'suspension' in Jan. 1999. I only found this out yesterday, March 21, 2000.
My license has been valid and I have insurance. I was hired as a driver for a medical transport company in Sept. 1999 and have provided excellent service for 6 months.
I have just been laid off due to the fact that, as per company policy, you cannot have a suspension on your driving record for 3 yrs prior to your hire date.
I don't remember ANYTHING about this '3 year' policy when filling out the application. Is there something I can do, either to have the DMV take this off my record or to dispute this policy?

you cant really fight the policy but if the DMV will change the record they might reconsider.
