Question:

The General Manager of Nunzio's Kosher Pizzeria has hired you to wash dishes in the evening. On your third shift, you are finally introduced to Nunzio. He seems like a nice guy as he welcomes you aboard. You are paid weekly by a cheque drawn from the account of a numbered company called 551999 Alberta Ltd. Nunzio's name is one of the two signatures on the cheques. Things go well for the first two months. Then you are not paid for three weeks in a row. The following week, the pizzeria is shut down. After finding out that the numbered company has gone bankrupt, you see your lawyer about suing Nunzio personally. After reviewing the corporate records, your lawyer tells you that there has been a mistake of identity-your employment contract was with the numbered company, but Nunzio is neither an officer nor a shareholder in that company. What does your lawyer mean by mistaken identity, and how will it apply in your case?
