Imagine that Weiner was fired from McGraw-Hill for striking another employee. Other than that one transgression, he had been a terrific employee. Weiner applies for a job at A Different Publisher (ADP). ADP calls Weiner's former boss at McGraw-Hill for a recommendation, who tells ADP that Weiner stole $1,000 from the petty cash drawer, even though he knows this is not true.

1. Must Weiner's former boss tell ADP about Weiner's violent behavior?

2. Did Weiner's boss commit a violation by telling ADP that Weiner stole petty cash?
