DISCLAIMER: THIS DOES NOT CONSTITUTE LEGAL ADVICE NOR DOES IT CREATE AN ATTORNEY-CLIENT RELATIONSHIP

The proper question is not whether you can take your co-worker to court regarding this situation (because people sue other people all the time). Rather, what are you seeking to gain from doing so? Are you after money? Are you concerned about your reputation? These are questions you need to consider because lawsuits are very expensive and time consuming.
