    Default Repayment of Relocation Costs After a Forced Resignation

    My question involves labor and employment law for the state of: California

    My employer has requested my resignation or will begin the process of termination (not for cause). This is a large corporation so there are several steps that need to be followed before termination.

    My central concern is that my contract requires repayment of relocation, which was sizable, if I resign before 1 year. One of the senior managers has verbally promised not to pursue the relocation expenses, but he states he cannot put anything in writing. I also know that in large corporation, it may not truly be up to him whether they decide to come after me for the relocation expenses. I am very close to my one year anniversary.

    I do not want to create any more animus than necessary, so I am currently considering writing the resignation with and end date to be one day after my one year anniversary. Would this provide me any protection? From reading around, I believe they could accept my resignation but move up the date, which would then put my resignation prior to a year and leave me liable to pay back the relocation, correct?

    To be clear, my concern is not about unemployment compensation.

    If your contract specifies repayment ONLY if you resign, I'd think seriously about making them fire you. The very second you resign, you can be escorted out of the premises immediately.
