Legal Question in Employment Law in California

I was a sales rep at a technology company and was let go without notice in Early January 2010 (they stated at-will). I recieved my last check and vacation pay on the day of my termination but I had open expense reports that I still needed to submit for payment. I submitted them and now it's been over 30 days and I have still not recieved my reimbursment checks. Are there any laws regarding repayment of expenses after terminating a sales rep? Thank you.

Yes, under the California Labor Code, your expenses should have been paid upon termination. If your expense sheet had not been turned in, that couldn't happen - but your employer should have paid you as soon as it received your expense sheet.

You can file a complaint with the Division of Labor Standards Enforcement (DLSE).
