Hi,
Would love to hear your opinion on this:
I was named Director of Operations for a startup company. The company was pretty much insolvent when I started. I was working on resurrecting the company. To do this, the investors removed majority voting authority from the founder/owner via a Power of Attorney and put in a temporary CEO (not me). During this time, I authorized around $6000 worth of company expenses on my personal credit card with the expectation that I would be reimbursed. We had no employee handbook stating a reimbursement policy.
Last March, the investors washed their hands of the company and reinstated the founder/owner. On that day, he "laid me off". Since then I have not been reimbursed for much more than $100 and there appears to be no plan for him to reimburse me.
This has happened to other management members of this company in the past as well, so there is a pattern here.
Anyone think this is worth pursuing as fraud? (Not looking for free legal advice -- just wondering if I should bother spending money on an attorney at this point...)
Appreciate any advice anyone has on this!
