发帖数: 293 | 1 这个美国律师为２００美元折腾没完
一个倒霉的美国离婚男，每月税后收入的65%要付扶养费并且偿还前妻的律师费。扣除
就扣除吧，比如圣诞节时公司给每个员工$1000年终奖，除去税后，再除去65%的“债务
”，这男的拿到手只有$235.72。
哪想新年后，公司副总裁找这男的，说他前妻的犹太律师给公司来信，讨要全部奖金，
就是讨要这$235.72美元。什么奇葩啊，这点钱也值得折腾？
这种事还真没法请律师，不值，可是又不甘心被前妻律师要挟，所以只能来找我。我浏
览一下副总裁转发的那个犹太律师给公司的律师的电邮，罗列了几个联邦案例法，不外
乎是说除日常工资外的其它收入必须%100还债，不再受%65还债额的限制。
(Under the federal Consumer Credit and Protection Act, 15 U.S.C. § 1671 et
seq., bonuses are not subject to the Act’s limitation on the percentage of
earnings that are subject to garnishment. In re Larkins, 2012 WL 1378470 (
Bankr.E.D. Ohio 2012); In re Radez, 2009 WL 1404326 (Bankr. S.D. 2009). See
also Kokoszka v. Belford, 417 U.S. 642, 94 S. Ct. 2431, 41 L. Ed. 2d 374 (
1974) (tax refund not “earnings”). In Aetna Cas. & Cur. Co. v. Rodco
Autobody, 965 F. Supp. 104, 109 (D. Mass. 1996), Magistrate Judge Bowler
ruled that “lump sum…payments by the employer do not fall within the
protective umbrella of 15 U.S.C. § 1673.”)
我就奇怪，这一堆案例法怎么就闹到人家工作单位了，给谁看啊？公司职员有责任研究
案例法为自己辩护吗？这法庭上的事怎么都下放到公司了？公司难道有权利做判决吗？
去他妈的，你想要钱就上法庭折腾去，只要法官下令奖金还债那就没说的。别把公说公
有理婆说婆有理的案例法显摆到公司里，公司不是法院，滚开！
当然，我为这雇员起草回信时还是满客气礼貌据理力争的，而且提醒公司照章办事，如
果公司滥权，雇员可以状告公司毁约。
Mr. VP,
It is the Court's authority to adopt a case law.
It is not the company's scope to make a decision based on case law.
It is not an employee's responsibility to make arguments to employer
regarding case law.
It is not professional for an attorney to stir up case-law argument between
an employee and employer.
The attorney should file a motion to get a court order if she wants to take
an employee's bonus of $235.72 for Christmas.
We should follow the process in case anything results in a breach of
contract.
I appreciate your help this matter and thank you very much
employee
就不明白这年头人人变法官，处处是法庭，像咱这样阿猫阿狗的业外人士也插手法律事
务，什么世道！ |
