French Courts are Mentally Derranged

PARIS (AFP) - A British secretary sacked for blogging on the job under the pseudonym of "La Petite Anglaise" has won a compensation claim case against the Paris office of British accounting firm Dixon Wilson. A Paris labour tribunal, or "prud'hommes", ruled on Thursday that the firm pay Catherine Sanderson, 34, 44,000 euros (58,800 US dollars), tantamount to a year's salary, following her dismissal last April for alleged misconduct. Sanderson's blog about daily life built up a size able international following, with many people reading her diary-style accounts about work, relationships and the travails of single-motherhood. "I'm so relieved that good sense has prevailed," Sanderson told AFP on Friday.Sanderson said managers had discovered from reading the blog that on two occasions she had lied about having nanny problems to take the afternoon off. They also objected to her using the computer in office hours to write the blog. "I always felt that my dismissal was an unnecessarily harsh sanction and clearly the prud'hommes shared my view,"she said. Dixon Wilson, which offers tax and financial advice to private clients in Britain and France, refused to comment on Friday. The company has a month to appeal.

The reasons behind the tribunal's decision in the case, one of the first of its kind in France, will be released in two weeks. How can an American Supreme Court Justice ever consider using legal decisions from another country as Justice Ginsberg and a few other justices have explored the possibilities.

Case and point, he is why liberalism is mental illness. The fired individual is being paid a salary as a secretary, for a company which offers tax and financial advice to clients. She is blogging instead, on the employer's dime, and laughing at... how she is getting over the boss about lying to them for time off.

I would appeal, and hope that the lower court were a mirror of the 9th district court in California.

No to Amnesty and the North American Union, Senator

Greetings Mr. Nelson;

No to amnesty, enforcement of existing laws;

1. I would rather see the 12 million illegal aliens continue in the "shadows" like now than have the Senate pass a "comprehensive" bill that lets the illegal aliens stay and work legally.

2. I have heard about their negotiations on a Republican Comprehensive Amnesty bill and are horrified that my Sen. Nelson could possibly be considering rewarding illegal aliens with legal residence.

3. I don't want Enforcement First. That means an Amnesty Second. I want a beefed up enforcement that will force more and more illegal aliens to go home on their own. Enforcement Only would be a better motto.

4. Any bill that increases the number of green cards to be given out to people who are currently illegal aliens is an amnesty, and contrarary to existing law.

5. I am insulted to hear that the Republican Senators are trying to figure out how they can trick voters into not thinking an amnesty is an amnesty. I am not stupid and I do resent political decisions that suggest otherwise.

6. If the Republican Senators can only represent the interests of the U.S. Cheap Labor advocates, they deserve to be in a permanent minority. THats why Senator McCain will never be elected as President.

7. Senate Democrats willing to champion big business' desires for cheap labor, do so at ther own peril. You now have a chance for Republicans to return to its popularity with American workers.

8. If you oppose all increases in foreign workers. and deliver us from evil like the likes of those within Bush presidency clandestine operation against the people's soveriegnty, then you are a smart Senator worthy of re election. In erasing borders culture and language by earmarking our society for the North American Union spending the Amerigo instead of the almighty dollar, then you to Mr. Nelson may very well find a 3rd party coming to your future. A revolution is coming to America, head the warning.

The job you save is not only the average american worker, but your own Mr. Senator, can you imagine a minimum of six or seven political parties, at a minimum. Two parties for each country. Very hard to get re-elected ....I think.

NO TO AMNESTY, ENFORCE OUR EXISTING LAW, REFORM CURRENT IMMIGRATION TO SPEED IT UP.
