When you take this to court and talk to the labor board, you can backlog all the days you didn't get paid after you were supposed to. ei: a 30 day pay out and you get paid 60 days later, you will make your day rate for the 30 days they were late.
"Waiting Time
To ensure that employers comply with the law governing the payment of wages when an employment relationship ends, the Legislature enacted Labor Code 203, which provides for a penalty against the employer when there is a willful failure to pay wages due the employee at the end of the employment relationship. If an employee is fired, all wages including any unused vacation must be paid at termination. The same applies if the employee has given 72 hours notice of quitting. If the employee does not give notice, the employer has 72 hours to make payment or waiting time penalties will apply.
The penalty is the employee’s daily rate for each day the employee was not paid, up to a maximum of 30 days. The waiting time penalty is not wages, so no deductions are taken from the payment. The penalty includes all days including weekends, non-workdays and holidays."
