If she cannot afford an attorney in the criminal case, she can request a court-appointed one. You should certainly attempt to follow the Evil HR Lady’s advice, above.

Well got a call from the detective today, Says her exboss wants her aressted and supposidly theres going to be a warrent out. . Cant believe no one knows the laws on this. Probably wont be able to afford a decent Lawyer to fight this, Guess not much we can do.

1. Fight unemployment. File an appeal.
2. Hire a lawyer. http://www.nela.org will get you a labor and employment lawyer who can explain to the detective that by law she has to put down all her hours.

Yea she filed for that, he totally fought it , and it was turned down, That was about a month ago. Would it be smart to get a Lawyer? Everything was great up until the day he came in and fired her. Like I said he is trying to get her arrested, And the detective said he’s probably going to want her to pay it back. Which will really hurt as we are on the verge of losing everything.
As I myself am unable to work.

Good. Then I interpreted it correctly. Yeah, call the Department of Labor.

And file for unemployment. And appeal if denied.

Wasnt no lying going on!! And she wasnt trying to claim over time from the 2 years before. All she was doing was claiming the hours she was entitled to.And she DID work the hours she claimed. NO FRAUD Involved. Just the striaght TRUTH!

She has been fired. And she was hired 3 years ago to manage the Office,To handle the day-day operation of the conpany. The boss NEVER came in the office, maybe once a week to get his pay check. All other workers got over time. My wife is one that always go’s above and beyond what she should, like working through her lunch ,staying late waiting on employies to bring in checks etc for work done, getting office supply on days off, etc.This went on for over 2 years, So thats when she decided to start putting the 3-5 hours on her time sheet.

I presume she’s already been fired so there’s no reason to postpone the complaint.

And now I’m not sure what the real situation is!

After re-reading, I think I agree with you. I think what he’s actually saying is that she’s now putting down 3-5 hours of OT, but still working more than that.

She should find a new job where they pay her what she’s owed then fire a wage claim going back as far as she can.

Only if the payroll person was dumb enough to pay based on a timecard when the person should be exempt.

But things like handing out schedules and ordering supplies aren’t typically exempt functions. An exempt person can do them, but unless the bulk of her job was management level, it sounds non-exempt from here.

That said, I never classify anyone as exempt or non-exempt from a single email.
