    Post: Defamation of Character

    Posted by FedUp on 8/22/06


    I work as an apartment manager for a large property
    management company. This is a subsidized for elderly and
    disabled project in a small city. I have a tenant who has
    been writing very negative letters to my immediate
    supervisor asking him to fire me because I do not know my
    job. She sends copies of all her letters to the governer
    of my state, the agency that administers our subsidy, the
    Human Rights Commission, etc etc. She has assisted another
    tenant in filing a housing discrimination complaint
    against me. Her complaints have been investigated by the
    subsidy agent and found to be unfounded. Unfortunately,
    this has not stopped her and she continues to write these
    defamatory letters. This has prompted more scrutiny from
    the subsidy agent and has caused me more work in order to
    address these unfounded allegations. This has not led to
    my being fired or censured, but has affected my
    relationships with other tenants in the project and made
    my job more difficult than it needs to be. This tenant
    spreads rumors and incites the other tenants to respond to
    me negatively. I have a folder in her file that is over
    two inches thick with these letters. Do I have a case?
