As mentioned in my other post here; https://www.askmehelpdesk.com/corporate-law/wrongful-termination-44665.html
Is it possible to sue a employee (not the company who employes her) for slander, and defamation of character?
As a result, both myself and my son have lost decent paying jobs, and denied unemployment insurance, which we have to try and appeal.
I was the supervisor at my job, and had difficulty getting this women to cooperate (her boyfriend was a supervisor at another location) with getting her work done, so in turn I would have to complete her work, if her work was not done, it would be blamed on me, or my son.
Every time I would yell at her to get her work done, or take less cigeratte breaks, she would call her boyfriend, and tell him I was yelling for no reason, which would get to the owner, and I would be punished. I requested several times to write her up (she threw a chair in disgust of being yelled at, to watching TV/putting feet in hot-tub after hours), but her boyfriend who is friends with the owner always managed a way to prevent this.
Now, since I was terminated, she took over morning shift, and is full-time, and her boyfriend looks to be taking over my Supervisor Position at night.
Is it possible to pursure actions against them, as opposed to the employer?
