Questions & Answers
The employer is not responsive regarding executing the court order
Dear advocates,
I, the plaintiff, won a legal case against my employer. I am the employee.
The judgment date was Feb 7, 2021. I wrote an email to my employer 10 days before attaching the court order asking for payment as per the court order, but there is no response from the employer to date.
Can you advise me regarding further actions to be taken by me to get the money from my employer as per the court order?
Also please advise about the overstay fines if any, as my visa expired well before the judgment date.
As I am jobless for more than 10 months now, I am suffering much, and I want to go back to my home country at the earliest after collecting the money from my employer.
Kindly advise me about the possible remedies.
Regards,
Dear questioner,
Thanks for contacting me!
Please take the next step that is the execution of the judgment. You should get the judgment stamped from the court before filing execution.
Once the execution notification is served and the same is received by your employer, he will be given a period of 15 days to comply with the order.
If he fails, you may take the step, that is filing applications for attachment of assets such as bank account, trade license, company assets such as properties, vehicles, etc, and finally file an application to arrest the manager of the company.
Hope the above explanation adds clarity.
Thank You!
