FWIW, it is absolutely against the law, unless you are a registered non-profit, to have "interns" doing labor from which you derive material benefit without paying them.

You could absolutely and correctly threaten to bring an investigation against him (or you could not threaten to, and do it anyways).

I think sending a formal letter isn't a bad idea. He's clearly working through the steps here. Although actually what you might do is just wait until he fails to pay your July 1 invoices and then include those in the court filing. Take care of all your birds with one stone. I don't know if a court filing in your favor on the past due stuff would somehow apply to invoices which he is not "late" on yet.

I'm currently working at an unpaid internship doing web development, as I wanted to gain experience in programming before graduating and I still have a part time job on the side with flexible hours, so I can still make money over the summer. However, it's going a bit below my expectations for a few reasons...

Is this anything other than a non-profit company? If so, them not paying you is against the law =).
