Legal Question in Credit and Debt Law in California

You need to track down proof that the bill was paid. You'll have to contact the previous employer and insist that they provide proof that the bill was paid - they generally have an obligation to do so even if he is no longer employed. Your good intention in paying them does not get you off the hook - either they were paid or they were not paid, if they were not paid, you still owe them for the services rendered.
