I'm sorry you lost your job.
If you are terminated, your former employer must pay your remaining wages and accrued vacation time -immediately-, and they owe you a day's pay for each day it's late, for up to 30 days. You have the option of either filing a claim with the Labor Commissioner, or use a private lawyer and sue (you would also recover your lawyer's fees). I would very much be interested in speaking with you about your situation. See http://www.dir.ca.gov/dlse/FAQ_Paydays.htm
