I have been working at one of the restaurants near my house as a side-summer job for the past year or so. My relationship with my boss has been terrible as of late. Details are not important.
I have recently decided to quit and applied at a new place down the road. Luckily, I got the job. However, a week into my new "career", I find out that my old boss called the new place where I work and stated that I am an awful and unmotivated worker, and that I shouldn't be allowed to work there.
What should I do? Is it unlawful?

If your new boss has a clue he/she would not take it serious & see for him/her self.

Did you have any written performance reviews, ones that you signed off on? Sounds like this guy is an idiot who is opening himself up to a slander case.
That being said, you are a fucking moron, so your former boss is probably right.

Too much gray area. I would be inclined to say it's not illegal for your boss to be an asshole, and if he genuinely felt that way he has every right to do what he did. I'm not legal expert, but I would find this to be a pretty hard case to win, let alone find a lawyer who would even take it. Just tell your new boss the old one had a personal problem with you, and for him to give you the chance to prove your worth.

Did you use him as a reference?
I've heard that you could take someone to court for slander, yet why the fuck would you use them for a reference in the first place if you knew they might say something negative? Idk.
Go get a new job, or go shoot your old boss. If he's a restaurant manger, chances are he's a shitbag that doesn't deserve life anyways.

Well,...
It all began when I decided to drink at the bar for free, while working, while he wasn't at work. Sneaky little ****** had a camera.
Since it was both a restaurant and the bar, I used the jukebox for my personal taste in music and wanted to cheer up the customers. He never fell in love with trance.
I repeatedly abused my rights as an assistant chef and would always steal an extra pickle or two to bring home.
