They did it in writing, too. every step of the way. from the job offer, to the acceptance, to the background check after, to notifying me of adverse information being found, they gave me a chance to explain, and I'm like, you said you wouldn't look back further than 7 years, the law says you can't, in both california and boston. They didn't care, and they in writing terminated me because of information that was 9 years old, my felony.
I have had a LOT of things happen over the years, many of which should have been suable. I'm afraid it isn't like in the movies or the media. the 2 year statute of limitations ran out in 2021, so. here we are only talking about it.
Also this is definitely free and they can decide to bring a lawsuit on your behalf https://calcivilrights.ca.gov/complaintprocess/?content=file...
In Massachusetts that would be a nice four figure payday.
