I owned a business between April 2001-October 2004. The business was sold in Oct 04. The previous owner gave an employee 3 weeks vacation every year because she had worked there for 15 years. We honored her seniority and paid her 3 weeks vacation since 2001 and paid her altogether 12 weeks of vacation during the time we owned the business.
After we sold the business in Oct 04, she quited in Feb 05.
She claimed that I owed her vacation because the vacation I paid her in 2001 was her accured vacation from 2000. I still owe her vacation pay for 2004. And the new owner would owe her vacation pay for the duration of her ownership which is about 5 months.
Am I responsible for accrued vacation from previous owner?
