Legal Question in Employment Law in Nebraska

Lost pay due to Arrest

The question I have was I was arrested one day before work. I immedialty called my work to let them know. I stayed in jail for 4 days during a holday weekend. My charges were dismissed. I was told I could not use emergency vaction I had to code my pay as absence with no pay. Can I fight this to get my pay back seeing it was not job related and the charges were dropped a week later?

Re: Lost pay due to Arrest

I would have to see your employment contract or handbook. Are you in a Union?

Are you permitted to claim "jail leave"?
