The big news today is that a San Francisco judge has indefinitely delayed the start of the Homeland Security rule on dealing with employees whose social security numbers do not match their name.
According to the new rule, employers and employees would have 90 days to fix the mis-match or the employer would need to terminate the employee. An unusual collection of interest groups sued to keep the rule from going into effect. The coalition group supporting the lawsuit includes the U.S. Chamber of Commerce as well as the A.F.L.-C.I.O. –two groups normally not in agreement.

This week a New York jury awarded Anucha Brown Sanders $11.6 Million in her sexual harassment case involving the New York Knicks Coach Isiah Thomas and Madison Square Garden.

A Fox news article stated:
"A verdict earlier Tuesday found that Knicks coach Isiah Thomas had sexually harassed Browne Sanders, subjecting her to unwanted advances and a barrage of verbal insults, but also said he does not have to pay punitive damages.
