When is it illegal for you employer to withhold pay in Texas?
I was hired through a staffing place and signed numerous documents which I read all of and none specified having to sign a form after resigning. The only thing pertaining to that said if you quit without a one wk notice you are billed $30 from your last check. So I gave my letter of resignation on Wednesday and was supposed to be paid for the previous' weeks pay the following day. I don't have a car so my dad, who on the paperwork is an authorized individual to pick up my checks, was told they would not release my check until I signed a red form "because I resigned and was not fired." I was not made aware of this before. It is now after five, tomorrow starts a 3 day weekend and I will be missing all my bill payments for the month. Is this legal?
