My question to you is did you report the sexual harassment in writing? You state that they threatened you, in what way did they threaten you? In California it is unlawful to retaliate against and/or terminate an employee because he or she reported sexual harassment. Your issue is somewhat complicated given the fact that you quit however, under certain circumstances that will not preclude your claim of wrongful discharge if you can demonstrate that the circumstances existing at your employment were so egregious as to cause a reasonable employee under the same or similar circumstances to quit the job. Under these circumstances your quitting could be construed to be a constructive wrongful discharge. If you would like please forward a detailed accou nt of all facts leading up to your quitting for our review. Stephan Math Esq., smesq1@aol.com
