Re: Non payment of comission sale after being layedoff

You understand wrong. Yes, salary and accrued benefits are to be paid upon termination. Commissions MAY be payable at some time, depending upon the company policies; check them. Companies are free to say they don't pay commissions after termination. If you've got commissions actually earned and booked because the customer has paid and the merchandise has been delivered, you have an argument that it must be paid to you, but on the normal payment schedule, not instantly on date of termination. You can always file a claim with the Labor Commissioner if you want to pursue it after they refuse to pay.

There is no obligation to provide you any paperwork. A boot to the rear out the door is quite legal.
