Yoga Classes as Payment being denied (Employment & Labor Law)

Thu, 13 Oct 2005 18:27:00 GMT

What is the name of your state? California
Roughly 2 years ago I painted a yoga studio. I took a partial payment in cash and partial payment in Yoga classes (1 year's worth: $1240.00)
I specifically stated in the contract (which was signed by my employer)
that there was to be NO EXPIRATION date in terms of when the classes BEGAN.
I spent most of last year in and out of town and had heart surgery at the beginning of this year from which I am still recovering. As a result of these circumstances I have yet to use the classes.
I have been informed that The Yoga Studio that I did the work for has been bought by another Studio. The new Studio will not honor the contract I made with the old studio owner. The old studio owner no longer operates a studio.
What should I do?
