What is the name of your state?Tennessee
My mother recently had an accident at work and has since then been givin a 10-20% chance to make it.And if she dose she will most likely be 80% or more brain damaged.She had been living with her boy friend before this accident.They also worked together.The boyfriend had told thier work that they were married!Well at the time of the accident we notified thier workplace and had discovered the false statement and cleared it up quickly with management.The main reason for concern was his strange actions since he found out that she might not make it.His main concern and topic the night of the accident was " i wonder if I could get a preacher to come down here to ICU and marry us tonight?"STRANGE HUH!?!? Well she was still in ICU in a coma when it come time to pick up moms check from work and I (next of kin) called to find out when I could pick it up.I was told by management that I would have to have papers showing power of attorney in order to pick up the check.Well today I find out that the employer has already givin the boyfriend the check and he has signed her name to it and deposited it into his bank.He claims that they(the employer) mailed it to her at thier address,well if that is true does he have the legal right to open her mail,sign her check,deposit it in his account,and now he claims there is only $50.00 left after he paid 2 months worth of up coming bills for her(with no receipts) out of $550.00?!?And if the employer released the check to him havent they both broken the law and how do I go about prosocuting?Thank You for your help!
