| Jan 27, 2023 at 22:47 | comment | added | Charles Duffy | @OldPadawan, it's not exactly like discovery would be difficult here in the very unlikely event that the company were willing the spend the money to take this to court. (For that matter, if it's a company that has in-house legal staff, they may also have automated discovery tools they can use to quickly search in-house email archives before starting the suit, and the result of doing so would almost certainly convince them not to proceed). | |
| Jan 26, 2023 at 20:22 | comment | added | OldPadawan | "he gave 3 weeks notice": I'll stop here because arguing is useless, but he gave nothing he can prove and rely on. Courts use proof/evidence. Ending in court for anything, whether you win or not at the end costs time and money. So just walking out is a problem, at-will state or not. | |

Any Employment court is then going to turn to the company and ask 'And why didn't you make these arrangements?' and they will either have to plead ignorance or incompetence - neither of which is going to be a good look for them. | |
| Jan 26, 2023 at 19:32 | comment | added | spuck | @gnasher729, if there is no contract and the OP is in an at-will state, they could leave after lunch or just not show up one day. | |
| Jan 26, 2023 at 19:22 | comment | added | OldPadawan | "In the employment contract..." says the OP. IANAL, but at-will states have rules that can be overruled by contract. So AFAIK no it's not only the company's problem. | |
| Jan 26, 2023 at 18:38 | comment | added | TheDemonLord | @OldPadawan - he works in an at-will state, that's all the companies problem to sort. | |
| Jan 26, 2023 at 18:37 | comment | added | TheDemonLord | @gnasher729 then you subpoena them for email records, show the sent email, then counter-sue for damages snd walk away extremely rich. | |
| Jan 26, 2023 at 13:47 | comment | added | gnasher729 | The problem is when you work out your notice period and they claim you never gave notice and sue you for damages. You MUST be able to prove you gave notice. | |
| Jan 26, 2023 at 10:04 | comment | added | OldPadawan | what about the paperwork? The money? The company's property if any? Just work until the last day without worrying about anything and walk out? | |
