Disciplinary Actions

Princeton Lawyer: Misconduct Defense

An allegation of employee misconduct may result in a formal disciplinary action such as temporary suspension, demotion, loss of seniority or a written warning or termination. Even if no formal disciplinary action is taken, an unfounded accusation may constitute a defamatory statement. In either instance, it can have a devastating impact on the employee's career and lead to serious economic losses.
