<prompt> Human: If this kind of stuff doesnt belong here, Ill remove the post immediately, My apologiesI worked at a restaurant, that went out of business about 3 months after I was hired. A month later I still had not been mailed my last check, even though I had been told by said boss I would get it. I managed to find his phone number on some scrap paper from months earlier, and decided to call him. He had told me that He lost my contact information and that he would meet up with me at a local BurgerKing. This of course, never happened. Ive been calling him daily, at various times to try and tell him to mail it to me, but he never answers.I guess my question would be:If my exboss refuses to give me my last paycheck, Is that theft? How long do I have before its not mine anymore? Is there anything I can do? It has two weeks of work in it.Edit: oh wow. Thanks for all the input guys! Very helpful! Edit 2: Just so that its clear, Im NOT looking for legal advice, just general advice and opinions.  <response>: May I suggest x-posting to rlegaladvice?
