wrongly accused (Employment & Labor Law)

Sun, 04 Mar 2001 12:50:00 GMT

Washington DC: I received an e-mail 2 weeks after a conversation with a female indicating that I had made a inappropriate comment and not to contact her in any way. After reviewing the conversation I had with her, there were no statements that were even remotely close to inappropriate. (we were discussing network issues).Nor did this person reveal what the alledged comment was. I talked with my immediate supervisor, she indicated that she considered it a he-said/she-said incident. I did talk to a lawyer and a letter was sent on my behalf to my immediate supervisor. there have no issues for the last 5 months. the problem is, in my position, on occasion, I am forced to work with this person. The other day I had to ask her for technicial information, which there were 2 other people present that heard the entire conversation. (all technicial information).
Am I putting myself at risk by talking to her?
should I change jobs?
we do not share the same manager and are not in the same department. I have no control over her job and she has no control over mine.
