the key is the context in which the 'touching' took place. if this occurred in the 'workplace', then the 'touched person' has an obligation to tell the employer what happened in order that the employer be given the opportunity to redress the wrong. if the 'touched person' is being supervised by the 'touching person', then the touch can be more serious. for example, a teacher or coach. please call if we can help. ed dimon, esq. 732-797-1600
