My question is, have you actually been suspended? From what you say, you have been. As such, I don't see any wrongful comment, the comment is in fact true. As such, I don't see defamation.
Now, if there is something in your personnel policy about not disemminating such information, you might have a basis for invasion of privacy, public ridicule, or the like.
Your situation involves major factual and procedural issues. These are issues that we can discuss.
If you are interested in pursuing the matter further, I offer an initial 1/4 hour consultation without charge, and a 1/2 hour consultation for $50. If you want to set an appointment for the initial consultation, feel free to telephone, or email, my office; if you are outside of the Salt Lake area, we can handle all of this by phone.
Don't wait any longer, give a call and let's getting working to protect your interests.
