Was this severance or compensation for unpaid wages, overtime, or perhaps accrued vacation or sick pay? see my website at www.californiawagelawyer.com for further resources. call me if you cant get answer to your question. if the company wants their overpayment, unless you give it to them, they would have to sue you to get it back.

To pay it back or be sued.

Make arrangements to pay it back . . . if even over a few months if it already was spent before you noticed it.
