Can employer terminate an employee who was found guilty of tax act violation related to their personal income tax return
Hi Giovanni,
Thank you for your question.
Did your employer terminate your employment and provide you with notice and/or severance? If so, they would be entitled to terminate your employment in this regard. The question would simply be whether or not you were provided with enough notice and/or severance in light of any risks you would face in losing a lawsuit (if necessary).
If your employer terminated your employment "for cause", and provided no notice or severance, they may be doing so due to this violation. Generally speaking, it would be an uphill battle trying to convince the employer to provide any notice or pay you any kind of severance without litigating. The question is whether or not they have "cause" to terminate your employment.
In any event, I suggest you contact our firm to schedule a consultation where we can gather more information and be in a better position to fully advise you as to your rights and entitlements.
