Hello,
I was working for a company from January 14th - February 2nd.
I was to receive a paycheck on January 30th for the 14th, 15th. Come pay day the owners of the company sent a memo stating there was an ach provider snafu that would be fixed Saturday, Saturday. Monday and now Tuesday has passed and nobody that works there has been paid, the owners have not addressed it either. After end of business Monday I resigned. Is what they are doing legal? They not paid at least one other person in the past I am told but I don't know the facts. I suspect they hired me as well, knowing that they did not have operating capital (and is that actually fraud?) and I overheard the building landlord saying they haven't paid rent in two months. I am afraid I cannot afford an attorney and locally I cannot find an attorney that would field this question.
Can anyone provide some specific info, advice or cite a source that refers to this sort of thing? Thank you
