    Can a contracting agency give a contractor a bad reference to keep a contractor on the market?

    Well, I would assume such a retraction would be with a legal notary present and for myself to bear witness, otherwise I can't see how it could be considered to be a legitimate legal retraction...I would like to know more about the anti- trust statutes that are currently being enforced as I...

    Can a contracting agency give a contractor a bad reference to keep a contractor on the market?

    I do, but I also don't think what they did was strictly legal at least not ethical and I want to know if there is a legal means of punishing them or at the very least forcing them to publish a retraction. to the poor performance report they made about me. That's I why I came to this forum.
