Can someone interpret this for us non-lawyer types?dhoobler wrote: ↑Wed May 29, 2019 10:53 am Attorney General opinion GA 972:
https://www2.texasattorneygeneral.gov/o ... ga0972.pdfNo statute of which we are aware provides a specific remedy for employees whose employers violate section 52.061. And the Legislature has not authorized this office or any other state agency to take corrective action. Despite the lack of a statutory remedy, an aggrieved employee may, depending on the circumstances, have the ability to sue an offending employer under the Uniform Declaratory Judgments Act.
My layperson reading is that termination on this basis would be a violation of law. That violation does not have a proscribed penalty, but you could sue for damages that result from this illegal act (like lost wages, costs of finding a new job, etc). Is this kinda sorta correct?
