Gift From a Supplier
I left my former company, where I worked as a Design Engineer in November. Upon leaving, my boss and his supervisor asked me to give all product samples ever received (bicycle frames and parts) from the company back. This is something that I thought they have the right to do although they have not done for other employees. My former boss and his supervisor are also claiming that I have to give them a Frame which was made as a gift for me by one of the companies suppliers, outside ownership, not a subsidiary or parent company. There was no company time put in on the sample, other than two short emails and my former employer was not charged for this piece. Now they are claiming that the frame is their property because I received it while I was employed there. Is this true? If it is not true, what language would I need in a letter from the factory to make this clear under minnesota law? Thank You
