Re: comcast
A Fiance sues? How can that be?
A question that no one has asked yet? But since when did a Fiance have rights to sue on behalf of their future wife? Not sure what the laws are on this, but a interesting question as to motive, and as to does he have the right to legally sue on her behalf?
P.S. Maybe they were living in common-law, but still what rights does a common-law husband have to a common-law wife of whom has died. If it were her blood family suing then I would see the logic. |

said by weedahoe  :right you are but even 'contracted' means 'employed' and from that we derive the commonly used term as 'employee'. Specifics do not need to be clarified as they are blindly understood. Actually, contracted is a bit different than employed - even if it's an independent contractor directly contracted to the "employer".
The only entity to whom there's an employer/employee relationship is with the individual and the contracting company they are directly employed by. Said individual is *not* an employee of the purchaser of the contract services.

I'm not entirely sure from state to state but I do know that the cable company can keep a contractor from allowing a sub-contractor from working in their specific market... Because being a sub-contractor is exactly that, they are self-employed under contract with that specific company and that company or the cable company can change the terms of that contract whenever or however they want to... The people that should take responsibility for this is the contractor and not comcast.. |
