what happens to contract of employment if I am imprisoned?

You're probably in violation of your end and the contract is terminated.  Most employment contracts are voided if one or the other party is convicted (or even arrested) of a felony offense.

You'll need to call the prison and find out which company holds their communications contract, then contact that company's "Correctional Services" department to get the details on what changes, if any, you'll need to make to your home phone account.\nFor lots more information about the whole phone mess and all the other issues that arise with a loved one locked up, please visit http://www.prisontalk.com\nGood luck.

All the people who answered these question before me are wrong and misinformed. Yes, you can be let out for the services even thou if you are sentenced, and in this case the person has not yet been sentenced. Even the death row inmates are allowed to attend such services, a special waiver is issued by the concerned authority after you apply for the attendance of services (you need to present a copy of the death certificate a document establishing your relation with the deceased), a police officer will be escorting you at times, depending on the nature of crime and sentence. Otherwise a personal bond will be enough. Call the jail authority or your lawyer immediately. Hope this answers your query. Bless You

more than likely you will have to go to jail and serve the rest of your time there. unless you get a lawyer and have them work something out with you to where u do work/community service program. but it really depends on your state and county. i know that some smaller counties are more strict then some larger counties and some smaller counties are less strict unlike some larger counties

Employment Contracts binding an employee to serve the Company for a specific number of months/years do not stand in any courts of law in India. The Company may threaten you with legal consequences citing the Contract but if you have valid reasons to breach such provisions of the contract, nothing can be done by the Employer. Generally, some employees use the Contract with a view to retain the employee when they train them on extra skills where they may have invested time and money. But in your case, you were sent to US for a project assignment where the Company had made only gains and had not made any extra investment to train you on additional skills. \nAll said and done, it is always better to thrash out issues across the table with your employer rather than confronting them. Think wise, keeping your future in mind, before you take any decision.

The validity of the contract will not be affected by the place of signing or preparartion.\n\nFor other details u should explain the nature of arrangement.

First, false imprisonment is generally a civil tort issue. That means that you would have to sue the employer yourself. Because it is a civil suit, the penalty would take the form of money or some other type of compensation.\nSecond, an employer does not have to allow representation during questioning in the way that a state does. The laws regarding the presence of counsel all refer to criminal prosecutions. Your relationship with your employer is a private matter between the two of you. If there is no contractual stipulation, then they do not have to provide you with the opportunity to have counsel present. Most likely, you are an 'at will' employee, and can be terminated at any time for any reason, or for no reason.

probably none.  most US employment is employment-at-will, meaning they can let you go at any time (and you can leave at any time)

If you told Friend of the Court you are employed and where, they will take care of the rest.  You might want to mention to your employer that your wages will be getting garnished and you are aware of it.

The householder is required by law to provide this information.  In theory you could be sent to prison until you do.  However, about 10% of the population don't bother and there's not enough room for all of you.

your initial contract for for 8 years total.  You still owe them 3 years.  Now, you COULD ignore them, but at what cost?  They may or may not decide to hunt you down and drag you off kicking and screaming, but more likely what would happen is that your chances of getting any kind of loan, Federal or otherwise, just dropped down to nil.  zero.  nada.  and if you get pulled over for runninga  stopsign?  you just may find tourself in jail awating the Army's convenience to decide whether or not you are worth the trouble to court martial you.\n\nWorth it?

Technically you would be in breach of contract however as nothing in writing there is very little employer could do. Employer would have to prove they had suffered financial loss and wouldn't really be worth the effort to contest

Good luck!It's not gonna happen,the prison won't tell you if the person is in there.They cannot give out that type of information.They will assume you are trying to help the person break out or are after the person for some type of vendetta.

Yes. Consult a lawyer. You may be able to recover under a couple of contract theories (even though you may not have sign a written contract). Write down all the facts, keep all paperwork, and log all your commmunications and what was said. COntact a lawyer.

Seek advice from the person (solicitor?) who assisted you in the compensation claim.\n\nAlthough you may be able to obtain judgment against them for non-payment of the compensation actually getting the money out of them might be a different story.\n\nI don't think that the previous comment about the Chief Executive going to prison is correct - this is not a criminal but a civil case.

You may get a ticking off and a small fine.  It's more likely that nothing will happen to you and that a grateful prosecutor will look at your documents and apply to have you discharged.  (I do hope so!)

You can ask in the Law & Ethics section of this forum. You can speak with an attorney. You can approach the wage and labour authority in your area. You can also approach your local unemployment office.
