I work for the state of AR and was recently asked to do a deposition by a third party. Do they have to pay me?

If your involvement with the families was through your job, it is probably considered part of your work duties.  Therefore, the only compensation you should receive is your paycheck, not from the family.  Double check with your supervisor or legal counsel at your job.

You sould be able to call them and state that you still have not recived your pay. But they have about 3o day when the court has told them to pay you. so you would have to wait about a month.

It is part of the job for which you hired the attorney who got you the judgment in the first place.\nHis job is not over until he collects the money for you. If he had a contingent fee, he doesn't even get paid until he collects the money.

request it from the company, if they won't provide it your lawyer can subpoena it for you.

I worked for a place that direct deposited my checks.  They were required to give us all paystubs.  I know they were required to do so because they were so cheap they squeaked when they walked.  They would never have spent the extra money for stubs if they weren't required to do so.  But...check with a lawyer to be sure.  It might be different in your state, this was in Colorado.

It's up to her to prove her entitlement to the payment, so you need to answer her pleading.  File an answer to her request for attorneys' fees and request a hearing from the Court.

What exactly is the nature of the work that is being done to bring over the new clients? Sales calls and meetings? It sounds like the appropriate compensation would be a straight commission (assuming that there is a measurable, immediate sale involved). If the work is being done in YOUR office and especially if this resembles an employer/employee relationship, then certainly the expenses are your department, and there should possibly be a draw against commission as well (a base salary, and commissions are paid only when they are in excess of that salary).\n\nOn the other hand, if the associate is working in her own home or office, then the bills are HER legitimate business expenses which she can deduct from her taxes.

Be careful.  I don't think that you can garnish a subcontractor's wages, since he is not an employee. If you do, the subcontractor may be able to sue the company for the contractual compensation for his work.\n\nSeek advice from an attorney (in-house or other).

i think if you list them on your resume the employer couldn't get that kind of info anyway... your former employer could only say how much you make, your duties, and your date of employment... that's how it is in arkansas at least...  now if it was because of a crime i think that your former employer would have to tell that...

You cant avoid a deposition if you are a party to the litigation! If you dont have one already, get a GOOD LAWYER. The deposition process is to assist in determining your culpability (how bad you were) your assets and earnings from the breach! If you flat out admit it....get ready to pay. Otherwise listen to your lawyer...not people on the internet!

I have worked for several collection agencies and when the sherriff comes with the subpeona it was sent by the pre-legal dept. all that is is a dept that tries to decide whether it is worth it to sue. i.e do u have a job? can they garnish? do u have a car worth anything? do u own ur home? lots of things because for the most part it would cost too much in legal fees to sue and not worth it but if your friend has assets that can have a lien put on them or wages that can be garnished it would be in their best interest to try to work out a pyment plan.

I don't know if you can legally record a phone call without telling the other person in Arkansas or not, some states yes, some no.\nBut, I would have a friend call the guy and pretend he is thinking about hiring you and is calling for a reference and then record what the guy says about you.\nThen you can have a nice lawsuit against him.\nTake the tape to a good employment attorney and play it for him.

The above answers are incorrect.\n\nHere is how it happens:\nFirst, the lawsuit is filed with the court. Then, the debtor must be notified of the lawsuit by having the court documents delivered to them, usually in person. This is known as "Legal Service". The person presenting the documents to the debtor is either a "Process Server", and usually works for a separate process service company, to avoid allegations that service was not done correctly. Depending on local laws process may also be served by a local Sheriff’s Deputy.\n\nOnce the debtor is served, he or she must respond to the court in writing, and request a hearing. If this is not done, the collection attorney will request that the court grant a default. A default judgment basically declares the collection attorney as "the winner" because the other side (the debtor) did not respond to the legal notice. Default judgment is almost always granted.\n\nOnce the collection agency's attorney has obtained judgment, they are empowered to take action to obtain the money from the debtor. A number of options are open, depending on the state the debtor is in, and the status of the debtor's employment and assets.\n\nUsually, a judgment will be resolved by locating the debtor's place of employment. The court will send or serve an order of garnishment to the employer. This requires the employer to deduct a certain percentage of the debtors paycheck and forward it to the court, which in turn forwards the money to the collection attorney.\n\nA collection agency or collection attorney may also seize some or all of a debtor's assets, such as automobiles, bank accounts, and real estate. They may also place liens on certain bonds the debtor may have with the government such as the bond that contractors are required to have when operating a construction company.\n\n* * *\n\nTherefore, if the collection agency has gotten a judgement, they can start the process of garnishing your paycheck or seizing assets in your bank account, unless the law in your state specifically prohibits it (it doesn't in my state).

Wow what a mess.  The best thing you can do now is talk to a lawyer. The court wants to know why you are not complying, first you don't even show up and now you're refusing to pay up. Get some legitimate legal counsel.

You may have to pay them back for the training, but probably not for the salary. You need to check the state labor laws regarding such things. I know you signed a contract, but not all things signed are legal according to state law. If it violates state law to ask for salary already paid, then they dont have a leg to stand on.

Insist you be paid. Call your clients yourself and explain without too much details and without being catty. If you let it slide, he will keep on doing what he is doing and do it to someone else in the future as well
