6 months ago, I slapped Bella, my co-worker on face. She also threw some stuff back on me. After that she asked me to apologize in front of owners and employees. I did. A month ago, I quitted job but owners didn't want to pay my check of 4 workings days. They texted a lot of messages to harass me. Finally they agreed to pay me. When I came to nail salon to pick up my check. They said they'll ask Bella to sue me again. The problem is that 2 years ago, Bella stole owners' check and her son imitated owners' signature to deposit in bank. Bank found out and called owners. Since then, she worked like slave for owners, do anything they're asking for. Now, owners are getting mad at me, want to revenge me. That's why they are asking Bella to sue me. Today, August 7, They texted me that Bella told them she got eyesore, and I'd better move my butt in jails for several days. I'm very stressful and really in a disaster, don't know what to do. Worry if I will be sue by Bella? Currently I just have 10 years green card. I'm appreciated for your feedback.
She can sue she is still within the statute of limitations but she may not get much from the action. She is going to have to show some sort of damages, or she can win, but not get anything.
It may be possible to bring criminal charges. The statute of limitations has not run yet. However, the police may wonder why she waited so long to report the incident. Do not talk to the police without a lawyer present and if charges are brought you will need a lawyer to defend yourself.
