Legal Stuff (where to start!)

People I speak to and tell of our story are amazed that we haven't sought legal advice. We know we were poorly treated and Wayne was 'dismissed' due to a series of lies.

Anyway, Friday was the last straw. Ws sick leave hadn't been deposited into our account. I emailed at 8 and received a reply at 3- I hadn't forwarded a current medical certificate for W and when i did it would be forwarded to the insurance company and in 5 working days the diocese would have a cheque which they would then bank and transfer the funds to our account. I replied very politely saying that I had a certificate and didn't know i hadn't forwarded a copy. They did send an email last week, but I missed it- I do have over 3000 unread emails in my inbox! So I said it would be sent to them post haste and we would try and survive on the $10.29 in our bank account. W went to the post office and faxed off the certificate with a note at the bottom asking for acknowledgment of receipt of it. No comment on Friday and tomorrow is a holiday...

So we are arranging to speak to a lawyer. I personally have been defamed by the report they produced and there are numerous other legal issues to take up. It is not that we want a large settlement, although money would be nice, but I want them to have the kind of sleepless nights I have all the time.
