Filed in archive Americas on October 16, 2007

A US federal judge issued a preliminary injunction temporarily preventing the US government from implementing a new regulation that would impose stricter rules on employers.

US Judge Halts New Unlawful Employment Regulation
The regulation would have forced employers to fire workers after receiving notice from the Social Security Administration that there was a mis-match of the name and number provided by the employee, if the correct numbers could not be verified within three months. The judge issued the temporary order, pending a final decision on the merits of the case, on grounds that the government had failed to follow proper procedures for issuing new regulations and the new regulation would harm employers and employees - both legal and unlawful.

See also Employer Sanctions Consequences of No Match Letters , Baker & McKenzie, August 2007, for an article I authored when the new regulation was first published.
