Are bankruptcy employee settlement payments taxable?
My company filed Chapter 11, 18 months ago and I have just received a check (settlement)for vacation pay earned 90days prior to filing the bankruptcy petition. Nothing was withheld. Will I be required to pay taxes on the amount? Or are there other circumstances during bankruptcy?

You need to consult a CPA about the taxation. Most of us employment lawyers are not familiar with the tax laws. However, I would expect the amount you received would be taxable since it is for wages.
