Hi,
keep a copy of every mail you sent across to the management-- your resignation mail and all others which you have responded-- with you. I hope you have send a mail wherein you have written all the above situation and hence the reason to resign without serving the notice period.
Generally, if an employee exits without serving notice period, the documents( experience letter, relieving letter etc.) and the salary are withheld by the company; they blacklist the employee meaning you can't apply again in that company which I think you don't want even!nothing else will happen.
Please read the appointment letter and see if there is any clause related to this. Please tell the clause and maybe you can be guided further on this.
You don't have to worry so much because they are just harassing you since you left the company without serving notice period. Though it is unprofessional but since there was a urgency at your place, The company should have considered the human part of it also.
You please mention the clause they are sending you, so that the policies of your company can be understood.
Regards

Hi Karce,
Any of the clause do not mention that any legal action will be taken. He is just harassing you.
Nothing will happen; these calls will gradually end as he will get an idea that you are not paying any attention to them.
Stay calm. Change your reference- somebody who is a friend of yours and who understand the situation.
Nothing will happen as company do not have time and efforts to waste just for 45 days salary.
You go ahead and start searching for new job. Don't show this 4 months experience if you do not want- simply mention that the reason of your employment gap is your personal problem.
Cheer up and start looking for a new job. There are hundreds of absconding cases in many companies.. and this one is genuine. Nothing will happen. Just ignore their messages. Stand strong; when you know you are right! :)

Hello karce, What was your last-drawn Salary in this company? Also, you mentioned that they didn’t give you any pay-slips. How was the salary given — cash or cheques? Rgds, TS

hi taj.. my pkg was 21.655/- .. they said our compny sevr is down, but they use to crdit the amount 28th of evry month in my icici corp accnt. karce
Hello karce,
That would mean they are threatening to go legal for about Rs.30K.
And you also mentioned it's a small IT company.
So it does sound tough to take on face-value for them go legal for this amount--unless something else is involved.
Like Pon suggested, just hunt for new job & settle down fast--more the delay, the greater the problem for you to explain the gap between your degree & now.
And also, I suggest you retain ALL the mails & other Correspondence carefully--one never knows if & when you may need them.
All the Best.

Hi Karce,
From your case, it understands that you are already out of your job and they dont have any replacement till now.
As Mr. TS correctly said that, your employer can process the legal action against you.
My suggestion would be slighly different for this. You can write them a letter that you are unable to continue their services not because of family problem but because of your personal problem (say you are having some physical problem and could not attend the job any more for 1-2 months or 4-5 weeks appr) Due to your physical unfitness, you can deny to serve them.
Off course, this is not a ethically correct, but by this stand you can have a strong ground, on which you can defend yourself from any legal action.
After this letter, dont send any more letter / message or reply. But keep the copy of the letter you sent to them.
In this letter you can request them to consider the case sympathatically and understand your situation. Also request them for not to proceed any legal action as you are not able to physically / economically fight against them.
I am sure, they will take this positively and leave this case.
It is upto you.. If you dont like this.. please forget
