===== There are a few scenarios where you might explore further options: =====
# Priority Wage Claims If the commissions are classified as wages, and you're considered an employee, you may have a priority unsecured claim up to $15,150 (as of 2024, adjusted periodically). But: - Most “members” are likely treated as independent contractors, not employees. - Priority only matters if there are any assets to distribute.
# Fraud or Misrepresentation If there is evidence the company or its owners committed fraud or diverted assets, you might explore: - Filing an adversary proceeding in bankruptcy court. - Piercing the corporate veil to pursue individual owners or officers.
# Third-Party Liability Depending on the business structure and contract terms, you might look into whether: - A parent company or officer had personal liability. - There's an insurance policy that might cover unpaid commissions.
