Call your state employment department. Ask how to file a complaint. They. Will. Not. Fuck. Around. They will pursue that company to the end of the earth. Even if the company goes out of business, they usually go right after the owner personally. They will not let go until you are paid, and the owner will soon learn NEVER to withhold from a final paycheck. Ever.

There are also state laws about how soon they have to send your last paycheck. $1 short and they just violated that law. Include a statement in your complaint that they are now in violation of that law.

This is what people don’t understand. Yes, HR is there to protect the company. If they’re exposed to a lawsuit for illegal behavior, they’re going to “protect the company” by tossing the thieving boss out the nearest window. You can’t just go to them to complain, you have to go to them and explain why they are serving their company by exacting Swift Justice against bad actors.
