my husband was laid-off from his place of employment last Friday. At that time he was not given his final pay. We gave the company the benefit of the doubt and waited until this week to see if the check was direct deposited and it was not. What are his rights?

He can contact the AG's office (which functions as the DOL in this state) and file a complaint of unpaid wages.

thank you. Any idea what the turn around time is for something like this?

None whatsoever, but it won't be quick.

You can try small claims court if you'd rather.

So, when he contacted the company about this, what did they say?
