摘要: Anti-nepotism rules in public organizations have led to law suits based on anti-discrimination statutes and the U.S. Constitution. Plaintiffs claim they are entitled work with their spouses if qualified employees. Employers, other hand, defend anti-nepotism as a business necessity, arguing that married co-workers potentially disruptive influence office. A review of federal state court decisions suggests rarely prevail such cases. In this area civil constitutional litigation, employer liabilities appear be limited situations where restrictions unreasonably broad.
