Sorry for making that so long winded.

Anyway, the attorney I spoke to today tells me that I can not deduct the stolen money from his wages. The attorney says that if it goes to court, all he has to do is say that it was for truck related expenses and the burden of proof is on me as the acuser.

The attorney did not advise about the $750, because honestly I forgot to bring that up. I figured with a signed approval, that I was golden - but now I'm second guessing that idea.

I'm going to fire him for refusing that load. Simple, clear, no chance of arguing it in court.

But, I really hate to walk away from the money he has been stealing from me.

And more than that, I want to be sure that there isn't some stupid-arse law that I broke with that $750.

I think I'm clear on the $500.




Oh, one more thing... the truck has a petty cash box with $100 for road tolls. If that's missing, and he has no toll receipts, can I get that back?? (Hell, I guess not... it would be my word against his as to whether he had tolls to pay.)

If what I've been told is accurate, then this is one EFFed up system we have.
