Eerst en vooral. Zij can' t neemt geld juridisch uit uw controle voor zich.
Als u uw baan wilt houden. Dan denk in brand gestoken te worden als u probleem voor uw chef-/eigenaar veroorzaakt. en uitgezet.
Maar u zult naar EDD kunnen gaan en dan een procureur voor onrechtmatige beëindiging worden.
Neem zo uw keus.
I knew a flower grower that took rent from his farm workers.
I wish I had reported them at the time.
They have undue influence over you. If I were you, I’d call an employment attorney.
And you say that he won’t return it…..you see this is why it’s illegal.
Next thing you know, the employer will be throwing you down into some basement and feeding you through a hole inthe wall and letting you out just to work!
This is why it’s illegal. even if you signed something that says that they can and that you understand.
Remember, he/she has undue influence over you. controll etc.
I would check both local laws and for a paper trail first but, you could simply file a suit against him in a small claims court.
In Montana, you could take action via small claims court (link below). Having a lease is helpful. However, I’m surprised that he is refusing to give it back. Having 3 checks in a month happens every so often and normal people know this.
I think before you take action you need to talk to this guy again. I’ll say this because I don’t know you personally: don’t swear, raise your voice, or lose control. Smile. Explain to him your rent isn’t a percentage it’s a fixed rate. Ask him this: What would you do? How would you respond or take this? It personalizes it. If you have lots of spare time check out Andrew Carnegie, Frank Luntz, and Robert Greene. It’s fun
