    Default New Job Offer Revoked After I Quit

    I work in the casino industry and was employed by a major tribal casino. I was then offered another job at a brand new casino and accepted the position. The owners of the new casino told me to put in my two weeks notice and I would start when the two weeks was over. After completing my two weeks I went to the new casino and was told that due to financial issues my position was being eliminated. They did not make any effort to contact me during the two weeks to notify me that they were having financial issues or else I could have kept the job I was currently at. My position at the Tribal Casino was one that had to be filled during my two weeks notice so that the flow of operations could continue and no I am out of a job anywhere. Is there any legal rammifacations here?

    Default New Job Went Away

    Depending upon the laws of your state, you may have a claim based upon "detrimental reliance" or some similar equitable principle. You may wish to discuss your situation with a plaintiff-side employment lawyer.
