Hello,Â
As on date you have not received results of investigations from your employerÂ
Â
as and when company sues  you to recover any money engage a lawyer and file replyÂ
Â
contest the suit filed by employerÂ
- Since, you have already served the notice period as mentioned in the offer letter after tendering resignation , then the employer cannot take any legal action against you.Â
- Hence, reply the said show cause notice after stating that you have already resigned and there is no relation left with the company , and the rule of company is not applied upon you , and further mention that you are facing harassment and going to file a compliant against the management /HR of the company.Â
You have not mentioned if there is any departmental inquiry or disciplinary proceedings are pending against you.
You have stated that you have resigned from job but if the resignation was tendered after you were suspended then the employer can refuse to accept your resignation pending investigation.
However, if you have been served with a legal notice, then it becomes your duty to issue a reply notice denying their allegations accordingly, and if at all any suit is filed against you for recovery of their money, you can contest and challenge the same as per law and on the basis of documentary evidences in your support.
If the inquiry or the orders for suspension was initiated against you after you have tendered your resignation, then actually they do not have any case at all.
They are just trying to threaten you by abusing the power in their hand, you do not have to be worried or sacred in such an event, you can challenge all their legal actions appropriately on the strength of documentary evidences in your possession.Â
Â
Â
First, you need to reply to the show cause notice point-wise against all the allegations made against you in it, deny them wholly, and say it is grossly unfair to suspend you based on those charges. Ask for an early investigation and inquiry. At the inquiry challenge the allegations on proper documentary evidence. Do not rush into any drastic action now. Proceed calmy and strategically.
Dear client I am sorry to hear that but in this case you can approach the management or nearby police station and registered a complaint.
Reply to the legal notice and proceed.with your resignationÂ
