Tennessee employees who are laid off, fired, or who quit must be paid their wages in full at the next regular payday, not to exceed 21 days from the date of their discharge or termination. Claims against an employer for late payment may be filed with the Labor Standards Division. The Tennessee Department of Labor and Workforce Development has the authority to enforce this law. You may review this law at Tennessee Revised Statutes Title 50-2-103(g)"

I know a few people who, in unrelated incidents, had to go to the CA labor board over payment disputes and non-payment by employers. In all cases, the former employers always coughed up the money in hurry once they received the letter from the state.
