		Users should be aware that the only official version of the Texas Payday Law is found in the Texas Labor Code, Chapter 61, which may be found in most public and law school libraries and in a "semi-official" version on the Internet at www.capitol.state.tx.us/statutes/la/la0006100toc.html.

	Columbia Law : Labor and Employment Law
		Because employment relations are simultaneously contractual and hierarchical, they impolicate significant legal and philosophical questions about consent, power, and participation.
		And because society claims a substantial stake in the fairness of employment relations (and their termination), employment cases have come to comprise a substantial portion of state and federal court dockets.
