Recently, the California Legislature enacted Assembly Bill 1521 (effective October 10, 2015) to limit the practice of high-volume lawsuits motivated by the goal of obtaining quick settlements with business owners, rather than correcting violations of construction-related accessibility standards.
vacation time
I began working for this firm in Sep 2007. I am told that I will not have any vacation time until Nov 2008 at which time I will have 1 day of vacation. Is this legal?
My place of employment closed, how do I get my paycheck?
I arrived at work this morning to find a ''closed'' sign on the door and the website removed from the internet. I was suppose to be paid today, how do I get my paycheck? Also, how do I get paid for the weeks I have worked that are suppose to be paid the next period (we have a three week lag between work and pay). If the business is closed, the owner filed bankruptcy etc, is the owner still required to pay his employees? What can I do?
New car purchase
I negotiated a deal on a new car last friday. We agreed on a price, I left a $500.00 deposit in good faith.The dealer called me the next day to tell me the deal was too good. He wants an extra $300.00 to do the deal. I have a signed sales order with the original price on it. Can they do this, or are they just posturung for more money?
