Borino v. Publix Supermarkets, Inc.
27 Fla. L. Weekly D1460 (Fla. 4th DCA June 28, 2002)
A plaintiff was successful in filing a defamation claim against a former employer when he was fired for dishonesty. The plaintiff was injured in a non-work related accident and took time off. He received disability pay by the defendant while being injured but returned to work for a second job because it was considered less strenuous. The court found that termination and the subsequent publicity of the reason for termination by the defendant justified the jury
