Back Pay

Life has definitely not been a breeze. You were wrongfully terminated from your finance job 10 months ago. You file a lawsuit, claiming that your incompetence was a disease, not a failure on your part. And you blame meds. Or drugs. Whatever the docs gave you.

Luckily, you filed the suit in California, so you won. The court orders reinstatement of your position, along with back pay. It seeks to right this wrong by ordering your company to pay you all the wages you lost out on while you were out of a job for 10 months.
