Asked in CA May 21, 2022 ,  0 answers
My wife's job has been terminated on summary dismissal for accidently deleting an Icon on her Computer Desktop. We have explained in detail to the company but they have not accepted and claim that she is responsible. We find the company decision is harsh, unfair and unreasonable. We would like to take court action. Your recommendation is appreciated. Many thanks. Regards, GT.

In general, unless you are civil service, in a union or have a written employment contract, you are an 'at will' employee that can be disciplined or fired any time for any reason, other than illegal discrimination under the Civil Rights, or Whistle-blower, or similar statutes. Your goal should be to keep your employer happy with you.
