Re: bad pay roll check
Send the owner a letter demanding payment within 10 days, plus a fee of $20. If he does not pay you can go to small claims court and get a judgment for 3 times the amount of the check.
You can also contact Workforce Services and see if they can assist.
Of course if he never gets any money and files bankruptcy there is not much you can do.
