I posted awhile ago that the IHOP my girlfriend works at was trying to get her to pay to the store 60$ she had received in tips because the Head server/night manager who had counted them out to her had quit and now she was somehow responsible for the bank supposedly being short. Well as of now they are telling her unless she pays that money back to them she will not receive her check. On Wednesday August 30th we saw people leaving IHOP with checks in hand she went in to try and get hers and they threaten to call the police.

At this point we have decided the 60$ doesn't matter and said just take it out…

At this point we have decided the 60$ doesn't matter and said just take it out of the check. We were told they can't do that and she needs to pay that 60$ before they will even give it to her. Is this legal? Is there something we can do?
