i am facing with a problem, i hope u can help me out.. there is a company which had taken bond or agreement as they call it. and they had taken my original marks cards. i left the company within the agreement period. they asked me to pay the money as per agreement or else they wont give marks cards. i paid a part of tht amount and gave post dated cheques for the rest. i wanted to know is there anythin legal i can do now to not pay the rest of the money? the salary they were paying was too less.. and the bond amount is too much. can u give me some suggestions?
thank u

Hi,
Yes you can sue the company saying the bond was illegal; because the company is in the wrong in the first place by asking for your original mark-sheets and documents.
You can drag the company to the court just for keeping those. If you have an offer from some other company, then you need to make sure that you get a court injunction against your former company from hurting your position in your new job.
However if you signed the Bond on Stamp Paper... then you might have issues with getting things resolved. Get advice from some good labour laws attorney before proceeding.

first, arrange for a duplicate set of certificates from the concerned university/ board..
secondly, suing a company comes in when you have a copy of the contract which you have signed in the first place.
You should have taken advice beforehand.
now also if you can arrange a copy of the said aggrement, take advice from a good lawyer and then let the lawyer handle the affair..
dont think about bouncing cheques, you may not even get bail in such a case and there is a lien on fixed assets too provided you own a property.
