Why won't my employer respond to the charge of discrimination I filed?

[@polapluggedin7713]

I’m going through the same situation right now. Recently filed my complaint through state court after receiving the right to sue. Didn’t know I had to pay in order for the summons to be served. So I did that and now I’m waiting on them to respond nothing yet. They only have thirty days so I was thinking they may just let it go to default. If they respond they have to back it up in court and that’s what they don’t want to do. So thanks Vince I think I got my answer!

An employer's failure to respond to a discrimination complaint can be frustrating and concerning. It's important for the complainant to seek legal advice and consider escalating the case to a higher court. By doing so, they can increase their chances of a favorable outcome and protect their rights.

What is a letter of substantial evidence on 5 counts of discrimination retaliation harassment wrongful, suspension, and wrongful termination what could this mean?? (DONT HAVE TO READ USER NAME ) I been watching you for 2 years in the process of all this thanks a lot Mr.White

[@MyOtherChannel-zy3tf]

Hi Vincent - in the respondents Position Statement, in speculation why would their attorney not respond to certain claims we're making, but simply just ignore them in their PS? Are they possibly hoping that these accusations will simply fade away if they don't address them?

[@JustJessMN]

I’m wondering this. My previous employer did not respond to my attorney’s demand letter so my attorney filed it in court yesterday. I live in Minnesota but my previous employer isn’t even registered as a business in Minnesota, only in Colorado. My attorney thinks (and hopes) my case will go to federal court due to the different jurisdictions/states. I’m genuinely wondering why they wouldn’t respond at all to my attorneys demand letter though. Like are they just hoping I didn’t actually have legal representation or have no proof (which I have an overwhelming amount of proof including audio that I don’t think they know I have… MN is a one party consent state).

Fam, I’m following you on many videos, and your coughing is pretty consistent. Imma need you to have a halls or tea before you make these amazing videos. You are the man yo. Helping me with my case but the Civil Rights Division is handling my case. You gave me some great pointers on (potentially) going to the Supreme Court.

[@TacoReacts]

Finally, I am going to early mediation tomorrow. My former employer refuses to retain any counsel. Both my attorney and I are going in with low expectations and planning for the continuation of the investigation. I was hoping they would retain an attorney to see the exposure and take mediation seriously. Love the videos Vince!

[@sek4110]

How long did it take to get early mediation scheduled?

[@TacoReacts]

@sek4110 from filed to a date set. 4 months. Employer requested it after an Investigator was assigned. I have zero faith they are going to take it seriously.

Hi Vince! I was wondering what happens when a key witness in the lawsuit decides to leave the company during the beginnning stages of the lawsuit? He is a key witness and the one who retaliated against me on numerous occasions, can you please explain what happens if he no longer works for the company when we are set to go to trial? Please help thanks!

My former employer lied about why they fired me in the first place! Their reason wasn’t good enough for the unemployment office and I ended up getting benefits! However, their investigation dragged on for 2 months before I saw a dime!

what are your state laws on perjury? Read them carefully because the language does not omit professions, their agents or the Agencies.

Mr. White, I am studying to be an executive at a government agency. I fight for employees needs and rights, but sometimes we have bad employees who steal time and materials and hide behind artificial discrimination chicanery that is completely bogus.HR will not terminate them because of threat of lawsuit and our staff attorney won’t give any feedback. Do you have advice on navigating a situation like this? Thank you for your time

Interesting! Vince where would someone find comparable verdicts? Is that something only attorneys or court officials have access to?

Can you talk some on working from home then being forced to work in the office. My current employer had me sign an agreement that I would work hybrid, in the office twice a week. That may increase depending on departmental needs. I'm in a division within the department. After working in this model with them for 1.5 years the division claims they need me in the office 3x a week. Increasing my in office days. Can I dispute semantics since we are a division within the department?

[@imkakashisbabe15]

Now they want me to sign a memo acknowledging that I understand their terms based on their interpretation of the telecommunications agreement I initially signed.

Is it normal for an employer to continue retaliating against an employee after they receive a letter of representation from the emplyees attorney?

[@bubbasouth69]

Anything they can do to get you to “let it go” you can rest assured they’ll do - especially retaliation!

[@respectfullytruthful]

It's not unusual in a hostile workplace. Be mindful your employer may be building a paper trail to terminate you for. Document, but not on workplace devices.

What happens when the plaintiff loses summary judgment at the federal level? My attorney is telling me it's not over we can appeal and take it to the state level court. This is a case for discrimination and retaliation. I don't want to keep shelling out money if I have no chance. PLEASE HELP 😢

So here's my situation! After a few edits of a demand letter working largely with a paralegal, we were all set to have the attorney review it and finalize it. I was told to anticipate a final draft by the end of the week . . . Four weeks ago. Reached out twice since then, got pushed back/excuses and so I reached out again Monday night and no answer. What the fuck! Why are they going dark all of a sudden?!?!?!

[@DefaultName-rf1ji]

I’m in a similar situation with my lawyer but waiting for the final demand letter from my lawyer and it’s been nearly 2 months! There’s always an excuse or just no reply at all.

File a small claims suite and proof of service. Let opposing party play silence then, motion for summary judgement, default.

[@tallchicknvegas]

My lawyer never looked at my Rebuttal prepared by someone who called me to do it. He was never told what happened. On top of rudeness, he said he didn't think I would win the case. I ended up doing most of the Rebuttal and submitting it to EEOC. Easy money for my lawyer.

[@tallchicknvegas]

@@dianetigert1310 Yes! Life seems to have many situations that look like a lawsuit. It's a game for those with disposable money; unless you can find a lawyer who will charge a contingency fee. My lawyer's fee to file a rebuttal with EEOC was $5,000. Another $10,000 was wanted to file a case with the court after a Right To Sue Letter was received.

[@Naturalintellectual]

Hi Vincent! So my EEOC case changed from mediation to investigation pretty quickly. There were around 30 people on my team before I got terminated. The other person that was terminated also had a disability. Would this be admissible in court? She disclosed her disability, which happens to be the same as mine (epilepsy) to me in conversation.
