The Gusdorf Law Firm, LLC filed a Petition in Superior Court in Georgia to appeal a determination that our client had been terminated because of misconduct. Like most states, Georgia law puts the burden on the employer to show, by a preponderance of evidence, that the client was disqualified because of her conduct. A “preponderance of evidence” means that the testimony and documents offered are more convincing than the evidence offered in opposition to it, that is, evidence which as a whole shows the fact to be proved more likely to be true than not.
