So.. they overpaid you and now you simply want to keep it? Is that the gist of this? I would think they'd have every right to recoup it. Just hold the overage out of your next paycheck and be done with it. That's what I would do.

You want protection or to negotiate for something that doesn't belong to you?!?

You have to be fricking kidding.

Finance Board would be a better place to post this one.

If they overpaid you and you didn't report it, that is fundamentally stealing.

Now maybe you didn't notice, but it's still their money. You can maybe ask that they break it up between pay periods, but there is no scenario where you keep it.

There does not appear to be anything in that statute which gives you protection or a legal basis for keeping the erroneous over-payment.

I'm sure your employer would have to show you that they in fact overpaid you (though that doesn't seem like it will be too difficult). Otherwise, they can likely recoup the payment that you A. did not earn and B. were not obligated to receive.

It might make you mad that they discovered your windfall, but I doubt you have any legal basis to keep the money.

This post basically tells me that you are an untrustworthy piece of shite. What an ironic username. You are probably the guy who doesn't pay people back because they can't prove that you haven't paid them already.

You've come to the right place. The OT has experts for any situation. Just the other day the OT successfully treated a man with chest pains.

I understand I won't be able to keep it and I'm not asking to keep it.

This is what I am hoping for.

They noticed it not me, get paid in bonuses so I just took it as quarterly bonus.

If you need them to break it up between pay periods, then it had to be an amount of money that you noticed you should not have received. Please tell me that you didn't just go ahead and spend it assuming you would get away with a windfall?

It would seem that after they get their money back you will be fired if you have resisted returning the overage.

Even if you got a lawyer involved and got to keep it, would it be worth it to royally piss off your employer? I would fire you if I saw this thread.

There should be no situation where you keep this money. Your employer should also be able to recoup 100% right away without working out any deals with you. You were wrongfully in possession of someone else's property and need to return it without hesitation.

So if it's savings and you didn't spend the overage then why in the frick are you even worried about them "breaking it up,"

I don't understand at all. It's one thing if you spent it putting in the Griswold swimming pool, I could understand you wanting time to recoup, but you didn't so no harm no foul And have it all go back next pay period.

If my employee did the same thing and tried in any way just to pay my back in full right away I would fire them on the spot
