Theo,

Do you have SOW signed before you started or everything is verbal?

I cannot elaborate any further, my request is specific.
Actually, the pages are all hidden from public view and there is no need for a user/pass to access them.

 

[Salient]

Drop me a line AP.

The company is not paying you because they don't have to unless you have a written contract with them.

The screenshots are hearsay. Even your address, codes, etc. which you put on the pages are hearsay, and will be excluded from evidence unless you can somehow prove that you put them there as you did the work and not later. Therefore, any affidavit based on them will probably be excluded too.

But it won't even get that far. The company will just produce it's corporate guidelines which will state that contracts on behalf of the company can only be made by certain personnel, and must be approved by others. In other words, temps don't have the authority to hire independent contractors.

Your cause of action here is against the woman who hired you on the oral contract, or under an equitable principle called quantum meruit (the value of your work).

I agree with Socalboy, however you can use a oral contract if you have the testimony of this project manager friend of yours.

Sounds to me like it was an ultra vires act. Major corporations don't usually hire people over the weekend.

If the project manager ordered services without the consent of his superiors, I would think the corporation would still be liable since he was employed at the time correct?

Thank you for your feedback, I asked for a particular task - not a discussion about what my rights are nor speculations about whether I have a contract or not.

Depends, but in this case, sounds like no.

While your input is appreciated, your tone is not. I suggest you use a spell checker next time as well.

I cant ask other members questions without you getting upset?

 

[Theo]

I did not get upset, RG.

Thank you all for the contribution to this thread. I am in contact with several people and will define my future strategy accordingly.

Your more than welcome
