I should have stated that it depends on the state. Some states may not have these stipulations.

- ceejayoz 13y agoCare to point one out that does? California, typically one of the hardest on employers, appears to have explicit protection for bad references made based on evidence and without malice. http://www.nolo.com/legal-encyclopedia/california-reference-law.html http://www.nolo.com/legal-encyclopedia/california-reference-... New York's another high-regulation state, and while there's no explicit protection against defamation lawsuits, it's certainly not illegal to invite one via a shitty reference. http://www.nolo.com/legal-encyclopedia/reference-laws-new-york.html http://www.nolo.com/legal-encyclopedia/reference-laws-new-yo... I can't imagine a "no references" law would survive First Amendment muster in the US, regardless of attempted state legislation.
