Your employer cannot wait until the customary time for calculating the commissions of current employees or to delay payment of such earned commissions until the next regularly scheduled payday. If your commissions have been "earned" on or before the date of your termination, your employer must pay your commissions on the date of the termination in the case of a discharge or a voluntary quit with more than 72 hours prior notice, or within 72 hours of the termination of the employment relationship in the case of a voluntary quit without such prior notice. 

If the commission has not yet been earned at the time of termination and is awaiting the completion of some legal condition precedent, for example, receipt of the customer's payment, the commission must be paid to you immediately upon completion of the condition precedent.
