Legal Question in Employment Law in New York

It depends on what your definition of 'earn' is and whether it is unwritten company policy or indicated in writing.

Generally, an employee is entitled to all earned income and bonuses at the time of separation, but it is dependent on the specific facts of the situation.

As an attorney who commonly deals with severance and unpaid bonus situations, I could offer you some further guidance if you were so inclined after reviewing my website SeveranceAttorney.com.

Good luck!
