Civil Rights

What are my rights against CPS (Child Protection Services) harrassing me and my family in Texas, and we moved and it has followed me to Arkansas. I have already complied with the CPS long ago over the same exact issue and aligations. I proved that who ever called (they will not tell me) was wrong! And each time (3) the CPS worker that comes to see me as well as pull each of my children from class and drill them with questions about things that can curupt a child if they are not exsposed to it, and mine were not exsposed to the details of hard drugs OR the manufacturing of illegal drugs! Which these are the things that these people chose to ask my children about without my permission or knowledge two different times! The case in Texas was dismissed, due to no evidince at all proving the alligations that were made were true! And we move to ARKANSAS and we have not been here 2 weeks and lo and behold, today two ladies show up at our childrens school (embarassment AGAIN!!) and at our house after they spoke to my kids. I want this to end!! What can we do?!?

I had a felony conviction in 2002 and told my employer about it when hired in 2004. In 2006 he 'GOOGLED' my name and found references about the felony investigation---not the outcome--online. He told me about it so I would be aware. He frequently referred to these internet entries over the next 18 months. I was terminated in November 2007. I received two employment offers over the next 6 weeks and after both talked to my prior supervisor, the offer was withdrawn, even though I disclosed my felony conviction on the application paperwork and was told there was no problem. I believe my privacy was violated when my supervisor first googled my name and maybe also if he suggested to potential employers that they google my name. Should I pursue an invasion of privacy lawsuit?

During an IRS examination; Is it legal for them to secretly record the conversation between the examiner and the taxpayer without advising the taxpayer? If different legality (US vs Iowa ) which would apply? Last but not least how far back can they go looking for small mistakes amounting to 2 to 300 dollars in deductions caused by incorrect listing where taxpayer failed to reduce deductions by 50% when occupying part of a duplex in 2004 not intentional fraud; as in falsely or failing to report -income- evasion etc?

My older brother age 48 was terminated from a local non union retailer after being profiled for being too slow on the job according to some computer statistics program. I'm wondering If this is legal since my brother has adult retardation and works and lives with a handicap?

I am a manager at a large retail company. In May I went on an fmla leave due to my alcoholism and sought help. Recently it has come to my knowledge that our HR manager told several other people the reason I was on medical leave. Is there a legal issue regarding the disclosure of this information by HR?
