My question involves labor and employment law for the state of: Texas
I'm doing some research for my wife. She's applied for a couple of government positions that are law enforcement related. Part of the normal application process is filling out something called a Personal History Statement (PHS), it's like a 50 page story of your life. They ask all the typical stuff along with not just what you may have got caught doing but what you actually have done. For example they ask about drug use, any crimes you committed even though you didn't get caught, or anything that you may be involved in that might embarrass the department, etc.
She's applied and interviewed at two different places so far. The first one she decided not to take and withdrew her application. After her first interview at the second agency that officer obtained the PHS from the other agency and compared them. He found a couple discrepancies and disqualified her.
So my question is should he been able to obtain that other PHS and if not does the first agency have any liability? The one thing that is probably going to be there "out" is on the signature page where it authorized the release of information from past employers it also says "or any other person who has information"
