Doesn't make any difference to my original answer.

Yes it is legal, unless you have a guaranteed employment contract or CBA prohibiting it.

This site is mainly for US Law. UK laws are dramatically different (I've heard) from US Law.

You did do it right. However, this is not my area of expertise.

Unless you had a bona fide employment contract or were working under a CBA in which first rehire rights were guaranteed, it's not true. There is no wage and hour law that requires the employer offer you first shot.

Didn't I already answer this question once?

Let me check my source tonight to see what, if any, the laws are in Ohio regarding how many days after the end of the pay period employees must be paid. Ohio wage and hour/wage payment laws are pretty nonexistent.

Can you break that huge block o' text up into paragraphs? And summarize your questions? My eyes got buggy by about the fifth line.

What type of "help" do you want? Oh, help that tells you what you want to hear. If the leave was not FMLA, then your job was not protected.

Somebody will if you start your own thread.

The jurisdiction IS applicable and we HAVE to know what state you worked in, because the laws regarding deductions from pay are state-specific. And what was the amount supposed to be for?

Was this FMLA paperwork? It is your responsibility to see that the forms are completed.

A case for what? Wrongful termination? No. Unemployment benefits? Yes.

It was illegal when they first did it. Looks like you may have to file a civil suit though; either that or a wage claim with the federal DOL. http://www.does.dc.gov/does/cwp/view,a,1234,q,539416.asp

It's just "supposedly" until you actually get a notice of the suit being filed. At that point, get an attorney. Anybody can sue anybody for anything, if one can find an attorney to take the case; the problem is prevailing.

How about starting your own thread instead of hijacking someone else's?

Any documents on the employer's PC are the employer's. If you didn't want them seen, you shouldn't have put them there.

Your attorney should have some ideas. Or a collection agency, which will attempt to collect for a fee (portion of the amount collected).

This site is mainly for U.S. Law.

Didn't you post this on another forum? MYOB.
