A few weeks ago, a customer at my s/o's workplace accused him of discrimination. To make a long story short, there was an investigation, and he was cleared of any wrong-doing.
Needless to say, the incident caused a lot of stress for my s/o, due to the anxiety of having to go through the ordeal. I told my s/o that I think he should file a complaint against the woman for false allegations, and sue her for defamation (sp?) of character, and emotional & mental anxiety: not necessarily for monetary value, but mostly for the principle of the thing. I don't believe that the woman should be allowed to "get away" with her false allegations - not only b/c of the stress she caused my s/o - but also b/c of the fact that if she does it once, she'll most likely do it again to someone else. I think that people like her should be "put in their place", so to speak...
What would you do if you were in a situation like that??
Would you take legal action against the person, or would you let it slide??
Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
