Enlighten me then. How is hiring an illegal immigrant NOT aiding him in

db59840

What?

db59840

RalphWiggam

thebruce

Then why not simply say...

RalphWiggam

7/7/15 11:12am

both scenarios I wanted legal advice on.

thebruce

7/7/15 11:22am

So you didn't know he was illegal when you hired him?

RalphWiggam

7/7/15 11:38am

thebruce

His status as an illegal immigrant is irrelevant

Is he married to a man? That would effect how much I would pay him.
