Legal Question in Employment Law in California
My business, a medical facility, has been sold. The original owner will not pay for accrued paid time off and vacation pay earned. The new owner will not honor any accrued pto. Is this legal?

No, it is not legal. But the question is, who is responsible? Since neither the old own nor the new owner will accept responsibility, you may have to name both of them in a complaint with the California Labor Commissioner, and let them fight with each other over who should pay you for accrued vacation pay.

You can file a claim with the Labor Commissioner, naming both old and new companies.
