first - should (ethically) the employee be fired and second - legally, is there an EAW exception that the employee could argue would save their job and what is it and justify your answer and argument:

• Brian, the head of the accounting department, refuses to sign Lori's leave request for jury duty during tax season, specifically the week of April 15. Lori is a tax attorney in his department. Brian tells Lori it is the company's busiest time of year, and she cannot be granted leave. Brian fires Lori when she fails to show up for work that week. Lori is suing for wrongful termination
• Paul has worked for Widgets Inc. for one year and has a rare form of liver disease. Paul works with chemicals that make his condition worse and he is coughing constantly in the workplace. Paul wants to continue to work but his boss, Jay is not happy with his performance or the progression his disease is having on him and fellow employees. Jay fires Paul for his "own good." Paul sues for wrongful termination.

1. Determine what employers must do when hiring new employees, in compliance with federal law, and whether your home state allows for worker's compensation benefits to those undocumented who are not legally allowed to work in the United States. Advocate for or against this practice and substantiate your response with research to support your position.
