Q: Do I have any legal standing with both the city official and my job?
I was just insulted and belittled by a city official regarding a building I manage. The city official used profanity and said no one here even speaks inglish and continued to yell and when I asked for his name he got 3inches from my face and was yelling at me with over a dozen workers present that witnessed it all. I called the police at which time he told me I would go to jail and did not wait for the police. I did take a picture of his license plate and got a police report. To make matters worst I told my boss and he stated for me not to get the company involved which made me feel worst. I do have a police report and I left my job as I felt the most stressing episode I'm my life. What can I do?

A: I am sorry to hear about your situation with your former employer. You will probably need to hire an attorney licensed to practice in Connecticut to fully address your legal questions. I wish you the best of luck in the resolution of your situation.
A:
A little more information is needed to fully understand what happened. Did you file a police report?
This conduct could be considered harassment, bullying and possibly assault. However, it is unclear what
happened? Did this occur while you were on the job?
