Legal Question in Business Law in Florida

Re: Traveler's Cheques

NOTE: This communication is not intended as and should not be interpreted as legal advice. Rather, it is intended solely as a general discussion of legal principles. You should not rely on or take action based on this communication without first presenting ALL relevant details to a competent attorney in your jurisdiction and then receiving the attorney's individualized advice for you. By reading the "Response" to your question or comment, you agree that the opinion expressed is not intended to, nor does it, create any attorney-client relationship, nor does it constitute legal advice to any person reviewing such information, nor will it be considered an attorney-client privileged communication. If you do not agree, then stop right here, and do not read any further.

I do not believe that the company can hold you liable for the bad traveler's cheque. Unfortunately, they can decide to terminate your employment though which could be far more severe as Florida is a right to work state and there is no guarantee of any continued employment at any time. Employers can hire and fire without cause.
