My question involves criminal law for the state of: New York
I was kicked out of my house while working for a place we'll call Employer. Because I didn't live anywhere near Employer anymore (I was living with a friend and had no suitable transportation), I had to quit without putting my two weeks' notice in and was unable to pick up my final paycheck(s). I returned a few weeks later after getting a ride from said friend to pick up my paycheck, but was informed that it was mailed to my parents' house, as it was the address I had used while working for them, but was informed they had to mail the check because they couldn't have stored it in the safe for me any longer, even though they knew of my situation with my parents and that the check would go to them and I would be there to pick it up as soon as possible. I understand that, but I don't doubt my parents either cashed the check or deposited it in a joint account at the bank that I had with them. If this did in fact happen, is there anything I could do to get that money back?
