What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Texas
My employer's offer letter included a company vehicle and gas card. They never materialized and I was forced to use my own car in my job. They have not reimbursed me for the 5,000 miles I drove during my employment nor for any other business expenses that were supposed to be covered. They terminated me and ceased any further communications.
I have documented all of this and my actual expenses and filed in small claims court. Any suggestions? Would this case be likely to receive punitive damages? Would it constitute fraud or simply breach of contract?
Thanks!
