Is it against the law to read someone's work email if they are unauthorized to do so? If so, what is the penalty in Georgia if there is evidence that a co-worker has been reading your email?

Re: Email Violation
Unfortunately, there is probably no specific law that prohibits this type of conduct, but there are possible civil issues that could arise � privacy, breach of contract, etc. I would need to know more about your case before I could give you a more complete answer.
If you would like to discuss any issues further, please feel free to contact my office. My contact information is below. Thank you.
