Legal Question in Employment Law in Florida
Disclosing Personal Information
An Executive with my company (Target Corporation) has disclosed personal legal information about me to hourly employees. I realize that the info disclosed is a matter of public record, however, this was not the way the employees obtained it. Do I have any legal recourse?

Re: Disclosing Personal Information
Public records are public records; a detailed factual investigation would need to be undertaken to ascertain if the behavior of the Executive is in fact actionable. What are the damages you suffered as a result? The answer may be that you have a technical cause of action, but it may not be worth it personally, professionally, or emotionally to pursue.
