The DOL said "IF DOCUMENTATION CAN BE PROVIDED," as was stated in my post after speaking to them. That is why I asked about the situation being that no document has been provided and this was an HR based decision. I did not ask you to overrule anything but merely your opinion. Thanks
so you are saying that they can legally withhold my paycheck, all expenses owed, and PTO time as well without providing any documentation, written proof, or legal information indicating that I owe them money? All they have to do is say I owe them money and they have free reign? If that's the...
One more question
Just one more group of questions...Is it too late to appeal any rulings in the landlord's favor? If the $5,000 is paid, can the counter suit still be filed? Can an attempt to recover some of the $5,000 be made during that counter suit?
The state is SC. The security deposit was to be returned at the end of the lease period...The landlord only decided to charge a security deposit at the last minute because his previous friend and tenant ran out on him. However, the tenant no longer has a copy of the lease as it was with all of...

FYI...When I contacted the company to make sure my check was there and it was ok to pick it up (since they wouldnt turn it over to another employee to bring to me), I was basically told that they wanted me to come and sign a document indicating it was ok for them to withhold...

One more piece of information
Just an additional piece of information...Our corporate office has sent the physical check to the office where I was employed and they have it on hand...they just refuse to give it to me and say the check is being withheld.
I have recently resigned from a position and they are saying that I owe them money for a car rental that was kept beyond the initial rental period. Can the company legally withold my last paycheck, and all owed PTO hours while they research these allegations? There was no notice of this until...
