You sould be able to call them and state that you still have not recived your pay. But they have about 3o day when the court has told them to pay you. so you would have to wait about a month.

Call the California Labor Board. They are usually very helpful, friendly and willing to read the law to you and to go after employers who clearly violate the law.  Most of the state employees who work labor departments are thrilled to go after employers who violate the law. This justifies their job and helps with their performance evaluations.\n\nIn this case, your employer may not be violating any law, so just get the facts directly from the Labor department. Help is a phone call away.

In Washington State employers are required to make final payment of all outstanding earnings to the employee by the end of the next pay period, regardless of whether the employee was discharged or resigned.\n\nper the Washington St. Employment Standards

you don't have to go or look up anything.  just call 1-800-300-5616.  press the right keypads to help you start the "file a new claim" menu.  it's pretty self-explanatory if you just listen and it is communicated with very simple terms and comprehension.  you will need to have ready ahead of time a couple of things in front of you before you dial.  you need your soc. sec. #. ; name, address, phone number, and your occupation of your last employer.  you will be eligible for benefits, only if you are a state or private school employee that has been laid off for seasonal or government funding; an ex-employee of a government or county agency, have been injured on or off the job, and are unable to return to that same position ever again due to this injury, and or you got fired, legitimately, or not.  with this latter reason, your employer has a right to deny and contest your eligibility, but don't stand for that!   file an "appeal of claim" form that you may also request over the phone, and the e.d.d. will mail it to your.  the committee that reviews these does sometimes decide in favor of the person appealing and filing the claim.  \n\nthe e.d.d. person that you finally get to talk to on the other end will explain the rest of the proceduire and steps (receiving, signing,and returning your claim form, keeping your telephone interview, etc.).   \n\nfinally, be patient!  the initial process takes some time!! and there is nothing you can do about it!  go with the flow!\n\nGOOD LUCK!!

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)

Well, if the facts are as you've described you should consult an attorney regarding the filing of a wrongful termination suit.  Of course, if the company can't pay its bills what's the point?\n\nFile for unemployment -- if your former employer is stupid enough to contest appeal to the Labor Relations board in your state/community -- and find a better job.

Your last wages due should be available to you on the next scheduled pay day. If not, you can file a complaint with MESC. But as soon as they get the complaint, you will probably be paid and they may say it was lost in the mail and there is no action taken on the employer.

Contact your local Human Resources department.  You should have received it by now...either in the mail or attached to one of your pay checks.

You have to wait until the company cuts checks (or whenever your pay period ends) and then the company will usually mail it.  It's pretty standard.  Most managers won't just cut you a check when you give your notice or on your last day.

I live in California and they can fire regular employee anytime they want for no reason.  The last thing you want to do is give a lawyer any money.  Many times people take a dismissal personal.  If it is personal they are not a company you want to work for.    Maybe you worked too hard and the assignment is now not as long as they thought it would be.  Many reasons come into play.  Maybe you were working through a temp agency and the temp agency found someone they can make a larger spread on.  There could be any number of reasons.\n   The answer is drive on find something better.  When a door slams shut two windows fly open.

#1. how long did you work for this new job? if it was under three months, unemployment probably hasn't gotten your info yet. employers are only obligated to report quarterly. \n#2. over three months, do you have your pay stubs? were taxes deducted? did they make you fill out a W-4 form when you started working for them? - If "yes" go to the IRS and tell them the sittuation since you probably won't be getting a w2 from them at tax time either\n#3. call them and tell them that you want a record of your disciplinary actions such as write ups and repremands. If they refuse, got to the labor board and see what kind of troule you can cause for them there by finding an intake manager and telling your whole story again\n\n\ngood luck

Check stubs, W-2s, or signed letter from you former boss on letterhead if possible.  If you got paid under the table and got fired under poor circumstances.... then it will be difficult to prove.

You have nothing to worry about. There is a statute of limitaions that is well past. If it bothers you so much, send the company the money for the check, but I am sure they do not even have a record of it any more!!!

Tough question.  If you're an at-will employee, in most states, they can fire you for any reason, or no reason at all.  \nSome states have "service letter" statutes, which require that your former employer provide you a written letter explaining why you were fired.  If they don't provide that letter, then you can use them for damages.\nhttp://www.timslaw.com/serviceletter.htm\n\nIn addition, if you were a state employee, you might have certain additional rights. Same thing if you were in a union.\nFinally, this may be a pretext for a discriminatory termination (are you a minority? old? young? different ethnic group? disabled?) If so, then that may give you a cause of action as well.\n\nI would talk to a lawyer soon, not with the expectation that you will get to sue, but he will listen to your circumstance and give you reasonable advice.  Most plaintiffs' employment lawyers will not charge you for an initial consultation and will not charge fees (but will charge costs) unless you are successful.

Garnishment usually occurs if you don't pay what you're supposed to pay.    \n\nEvery state and every county has its own percentage that can be garnished from your wages.\n\nBut that should not be your only concern.  Garnishment orders are sent to your employer who will know you had a collection case against you.
