Legal Question in Personal Injury in California
untrue statements made to employer causing loss of employment
I work for a temporary staffing company. I am attempting to get hired on as a full time employee at the most recent jobsite that the temporary staffing company placed my at. shortly after turning in my application and completing some of the pre-employment tests, an individual misrepresented me in a conversation he intitiated . As a result of this conversation (which alleges I claimed to be part of a theft ring) the temporary staffing company has been unable to place me at the job site in question and my applicant/ potential employer relationship has likely been damaged beyond repair. Is there any legal action I can take for compensation or a judgement against the individual who misrepresented the contents of our conversation?

Your fact pattern is quite complex and I will need a lot more details to outline a proper answer. However, based upon what you do give, I would say that you may have a cause of action against that person for slander per se.

Sure, you can sue, if you can prove the statements, and prove you suffered financial damage as a result. Feel free to contact me if seriously interested in pursuing this.
