Explanation
As compared to Company SE, Company B would not have any number or fine because Company B was not present at the time of the deal between Individual A and Company SE. Individual A also had no employment agreement with Company B.
The wages should be attributed to the assignor's validity of the assignment. The existence of a contract to which the assignor is a party is necessary for the legitimacy of the appointment. Whereas, the future right to money, such as compensation that is to be received under an established work contract, is assignable.
A supposed assignment of a right that is intended to occur under a contract not in effect only serves as a pledge as it happens to allocate the right.
Verified Answer
Company B will not prevail any amount or fine as opposed by Company SE because Company B was not present at the time of the contract between Individual A and Company S.
Also, Individual A had no agreement of employment with Company B. The wages should be assignable according to the assignor validity of the assignment.
