Legal Question in Sexual Harassment in Oklahoma

termination

I was terminated from a job shortly after I had verbally complained to the board that the executive director was sexually harassing me.

They had us watch a "video", but it still continued. When I voiced my concerns again, thats when I was terminated.

Their reason was because I was going through a court case that they felt would upset the parents of the children we were working with (it never bothered anyone until I complained of the sexual harassment) the executive director is the "famous" Rodney Lay - it turns out this is not the first time a female has complained regarding Mr. Lay and sexual harassment.

Please contact me and I can provide further details for you.

Can they terminate me and the other girl?

Re: termination

YOU HAVE PRESENTED A QUESTION THAT MUST BE ANSWERED BY ANOTHER. WAS THERE ANY LEGITIMACY IN YOUR UNDERLYING COMPLAINT. IN CALIFORNIA, YOU MAY BE TERMINATED WITHOUT CAUSE. HOWEVER, IF YOU WERE TRULY BEING SEXUALLY HARASSED, THEN YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO COMPLAIN WITHOUT FEAR OF TERMINATION. THE QUESTION WILL BE ONE OF PROOF.
