What is the name of your state? Utah
A letter was sent to my employer by my wife's ex-husband. In the letter there were false statements made about me and actions I have supposedly taken. Is this Libel? My employer gave the letter to my supervisor, who called me in for a meeting in her office. I was not disciplined, but the letter will go in my file and may damage my future plans for my career. If I were to sue the ex-husband would the burden of proof be on me to prove the events did not take place or on him to prove they did? Both sides would have witnesses stating different sides to the story. There is nothing in the police reports stating any of this is fact. What do I do now?
