Job Said There’s “No Work” & Laid Me Off – They’re Still Hiring! Can I Sue?

Question: I was upfront and honest about my felony convictions when I was trying to get a job and was hired by a company that I stayed with for over 3 years. I was laid off 3 1/2 yrs ago, I wasn’t fired – just laid off because of lack of work. But the company has and is still continuing to hire! Can I take them to court for discrimination?

The Judge’s Answer: No. Not unless they discriminated against you because of your race, gender or religion.
