    Did an UNDOCUMENTED worker steal your job?

    You can enforce your rights!

    Private Enforcement of Immigration Laws:

    There is a federal immigration law that states it is discrimination for an employer to favor the hiring of undocumented workers over documented workers. There is also recent case law in the 9th Circuit and others- that gives private individuals (legal documented workers) a cause of action against the employer under the RICO statutes. There have been successful class action suits against big companies for RICO violations for hiring undocumented workers rather than legal residents or citizens. Companies have appealed, and the 9th Circuit (and others) have upheld the RICO cause of action, and the U.S. Supreme Court denied certiorari, so the case law stands.

    Bringing a civil suit under RICO and enforcing the immigration laws against employers privately $$$ may be what finally hits the employers where it counts- their bottom line.

    I am an attorney...This post is not intended as legal advice. If you need legal advice, please seek the advice of independent legal counsel.

    However, if you feel you have been wronged and would like to make it right, I would be happy to speak with you.

    Thanks for the welcomes!

    I will look for the email alert link.

    I agree, we need more attorneys who will fight this battle. I am volunteering for the job in the meantime and will be filing two suits in Federal court next week.

    I'll keep you posted.

    Welcome! It's nice to have a lawyer among us. I think you'd be flooded with displaced employees.
    I'd rather die living then live dying!
