Should I reissue a paycheck not cashed by a former employee?

Do not issue a new check until you have the returned check in your hands.  It is abnormal for someone to not cash a check for so long.  You are probably not legally required to issue her a new check, since it is clearly noted that it is good for one year only.

Not if it is an installment payment, then it is just that payment you are paying in full.  The issue of good faith also comes into play, where the payee has to have made the payment in good faith after reaching an accord with the creditor.  In some states the other party can still cash the check and still has a resonable time to pursue collection action for the balance.\n\nAlso, in addition to clearly marking "Payment In Full" on the check, it must also (by federal law) be accompanied by an attached written communication stating that the check is intended as payment in full.  And the check must go to the creditor, not to a lock box.\n\nSo yes, it might work, in some states.  But if you owe $100,000, and send a check for $1000, unless you can prove that the payment was sent in good faith the other $99K just isn't going to disappear.

Your state notifies the other state who files a "Foreign judgement"  If their state law doesn't make the employer send the money weekly you are out of luck.  If it does then you need to have the other state send a compliance order to the workplace.  Be careful tho, cause too much of a stink and he will lose his job (Have seen it over 10 times this year alone)

Does your company calculate and print the paychecks themselves, or do they send the work out to a company like ADP to print up paychecks?\n\nIf your boss sends out the payroll work, that could account a delay happening the week AFTER the holiday...since the payroll company is doing the same amount of work in a shorter amount of time.  But in your case, the calculations and printing would have happened long before the holiday.\n\nWhen are the paychecks physically in the building?  If you have to wait for them to be sent in from an outside company, it might be out of your boss's hands.\n\nIf he actually has them in his hands before the holiday, he's probably just being a prick.  Check your company's policy about that.  Most medium-to-large companies have written guidelines on how holidays affect pay schedules.\n\nIf the company handbook is on your side, and your boss has the actual checks in plenty of time, take your concerns politely and calmly to the HR department, and if that doesn't work call your local labor board.  Just because he's a boss, doesn't mean he has the right to play God with your pay.

they will bounce the check every week until you can pay it.  you should just call and make a agreement of some type of payment.  they would rather get some money than none.

I don't think so, but I would do three things:\n\n1.  Ask them, in writing, what the status is of your paycheck.  Let them know what date you started, and what you believe the pay period to be.\n\n2.  If you were provided an employee manual, read up on the pay period policy.  If you don't have an employee manual, request one-  at the very least ask them to send you their WRITTEN payroll policy.\n\n3.  I would contact your state's labor / employment office and explain to them what's going on.  They should be able to answer your question right away, and possibly contact your employer.\n\nYou aren't asking for anything unreasonable, and they should be able to answer your questions.  You should also keep track of each time you speak with someone about your paycheck (name of person, date, time, what was discussed) in case you have to refer back to it later.  \n\nGood Luck!

Oh come on.  Did your check bounce or not?  Are you trying to burn them on the technicality that you have a stamped piece of paper knowing your check never cleared?  \n\nIf your check never cleared, you owe them the money plus probably interest.  If you have paid them, send them a copy of the canceled check along with a copy of your stamped documents indicating you paid it already.

Just pay it back. NO legal problem, but make up a story as to why you thought you were getting the extra money.

Pretty much.  As long as he is collecting a pay check he should do as requested as long as it is within the bounds of his job description.  And it is not an unreasonable request to ask him to document his work.   \n\nHe may not have much to lose in terms of this job since it's already lost, but if he wants to leave under reasonably good terms and get a good reference to help get his next job, he should try to be acommodating.

Who handled you court case?  Ask them for the documents that itemize the payout. Just because there is no itemization written on the check does not mean that the company did not debit different general ledger accounts and keep exact records.   \n\nYour advice in this situation should come from your attorney and your accountant.  That is if you do not want to find yourself in a mess with the IRS.  Those who advise you to run scams will not be with you when the IRS assesses tax, penalties and interest.

Nope.  They have to be sure you didnt cash it.\nYour friend really needs to pursue the issue since he wrote the check.

If it's not too late, see if you can stop payment on the check that you wrote (if you wrote one already).\n\nAlso, go to the bank and explain the situation; if you deposited it in good faith, you shouldn't get into trouble

Most of us live with the idea that the past repeats itself.  \n\nThey are checking:\n\n1)  Did you lie on your application about your past salary?\n2)  Have you been in the same line of work for the last two years?\n3)  Does it show your salary has been going up?\n4)  Have you filed taxes for the last two years (otherwise the IRS could put a lien against your house once you have one)\n\nIt goes on and on, but the rest are just variations of the four above.\n\nContrary to the guy above me, it is almost ALWAYS REQUIRED UNLESS you are going with a stated income loan.

Unless you signed a form that says you would participate in a benefit program and allow the company to deduct money from your paycheck, the comapony is stealing from you. It is that simple. A company may not withold funds from you without your written authorization.\n\nSeek a lawyer immediately to help get your money back.\n\nGood luck!

I haven't had to do it, but I have known of others, and it can be very educational if not re-assuring that your past is now in the past.  \n\nIt doesn't cost much financially nor personally. Seeing that you no longer work there, what can it hurt?\n\nIt also can lead to an opportunity to set the record straight.  With a less than professional past employer (and if it is legal in your State (USA) like it is in Minnesota), taping a phone conversation without notification of the other party like it is in Minnesota.  A tape of bad-mouthing ex-boss can make a lawyer salivate.  A good or at least basic reference can let your paranoia rest and move-on to new unfounded fears!\n\nGood Luck!

You'll have to talk first to the payroll person. Take your time records to them as proof of the time owed. If they refuse to pay in full then, you'll have to file a suit in small claims court.  If/when the judge finds in your favor, it will be a legal ruling. The court demanding this company to pay what they owe. With this being official, they've got to pay or face further legal action from the court. You'll have to power to then to file liens, or sieze funds from their accounts.  You may also be able to sue for your financial debts that are a result of not being paid. (Ie: overdraft charges, etc.)\n  I'd be quick about it though. Not paying, is a big red flag. The company may be about to file bankruptcy. If so, you'll have a much harder time, and may not see a dime.

....you have to give more details.  "detaching pay" before court date?  Do you mean taking money from your check?  Why would they take money from your check?  Child support? what?  \nPlease explain the problem in more detail.
