● A U.S. LEGAL REFERENCE / EARLY BETA
Know the Law
Before You
Cross the Line.
State laws can change the moment you cross a border.
StateLine Law helps you explore the rules relevant to your location, compare jurisdictions, and go directly to the sources behind the rule.

01 / HOW STATELINE WORKS
From a question
to a clearer starting point.
Locate
Select the state relevant to your issue. Current location alone does not establish which law applies.
Understand
Read a plain-English summary with timing, exceptions and its source.
Compare
Explore the same subject across two states, then save useful reading.
02 / COMPARE BEFORE YOU CROSS THE LINE
The difference
is in the details.
A final paycheck is a useful example: the reason a job ended and the way days are counted can change the payment deadline.
AZ
Arizona
FINAL PAY / INVOLUNTARY SEPARATION
Discharged employees must be paid within seven working days or the end of the next regular pay period, whichever comes sooner.
Employees who quit are paid by the regular payday for the pay period in which employment ended.

TX
Texas
FINAL PAY / INVOLUNTARY SEPARATION
Final wages are due within six calendar days for an involuntary separation, or on the next regularly scheduled payday after a voluntary resignation.
Commissions, bonuses and benefits can follow a different agreed payment schedule.

Example from the beta. This is not a determination of how the law applies to an individual situation.
03 / JURISDICTION COMES FIRST
Where it happened
changes what matters.
Your home state, current location and the place an issue occurred can be different. Start with the state relevant to the question.
StateLine’s current beta uses state selection. City rules, federal law, court orders and the facts of an issue can require further research.
04 / PLAIN ENGLISH. ORIGINAL SOURCES.
Clarity you can
trace back.
Read the summary in StateLine. Follow its citation when you want to examine the original authority.
Source-check dates are distinct from effective dates or legal review. If a detail is unknown, it should remain unknown.
Our research approach ↗05 / COVERAGE, WITHOUT THE GUESSWORK
Know what’s here.
And what isn’t.
State comparisons & reading
Right turns on red across 50 states. Selected housing, employment and consumer subjects, alongside national guides. Search, topic questions and local bookmarks.
Depth varies by topic.
State-specific summaries cover selected jurisdictions. A missing entry means information has not been added, not that no law exists.
Guided situation intake
Describe what happened and answer targeted follow-up questions. Live legislative updates and notifications are also outside the current beta.
A REFERENCE. A STARTING POINT.
Information to support your research.
StateLine Law provides legal information, not legal advice. It is not a law firm. Using StateLine does not create an attorney-client relationship.
Legal coverage varies by jurisdiction and topic. For advice about your circumstances, consult a qualified attorney.
