You are presumed innocent while awaiting trial and you retain all of your civil rights, including the right to receive money that you have earned. You would still have the right to receive earned funds post-conviction.

I agree with Mr. Stone, unless you have a contract that says you are only paid commissions on customer payments recieved while you are an active employee, but not after termination or when you are not working.
