Legal Question in Civil Litigation in Texas
Slander
I relocated from one state to another. My present employer called my old supervisor for a reference.My old boss told my new boss that I was gay. He also told him that I was caught masterbating. This is the second job I've been on where this outright lie has been told.Is this grounds for civil action.I cannot tell you the mental anguish I'm going through.Now,my new boss and co-workers all stare and laugh.

To be short and to the point, I suggest that you make an appointment with an attorney to discuss the entire situation.
