Can I file a case for labour dues if the employer filed a criminal case against me?

Hi

My company fired me after 8 years of service for accusing me of 10k. The case is still in the prosecution and I provided evidence.

My question:

Can I file a case in labor to get my end of service and my last month's salary?

Should I wait for the decision from the prosecutor to file the case in labor?

Dear Questioner,

Absolutely, yes, you still have the legal right to file a labor complaint against your employer to claim your labor benefits due to the fact that you still did not get the final verdict of the criminal case and it is still ongoing.

Moreover, you shouldn’t wait for the prosecutor's decision as this is your absolute legal right to do.

Shall you need to approach our legal services for two cases, please do not hesitate to contact us at our email.

Thanks.

Dear questioner,

It is recommended that you file your labor case once you finish your criminal case because some labor claims depend upon the verdict of criminal proceedings.
