Re: unused vacation time and commissions

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.

If you do not agree, then stop right here, and do not read any further.

If the vacation time was earned, then it must be paid. If it was not yet earned (i.e. two weeks AFTER one year but the year has not been completed) then you do not have to pay. All earned commissions must be paid, even if the deal had not yet closed and was still transpiring.
