Fired and previous employer will send final paycheck.
Dear Mel,
I was fired the other day from a Kwik Kar Lube and Tune and was told by the owner that he would put my final paycheck in the mail. When I did not recieve it, I called to ask why. He said that he was not going to pay me because of damages incurred to a vehicle I was working on that caused my dismissal (engine problem).
I responded that he had insurance for this sort of thing, but he said that he was keeping my paycheck (about $300) to help cover the deductable.
I know this is a small amount, but it's the principal of the matter.
What should I do?
Thanks Mel!

An employer cannot hold your last check without your written authorization. File a complaint with the Texas Workforce Commission.
