Legal Question in Tax Law in California

withholding tax withholdings

an ex-employer failed to report on my w-2 the full amount of

federal income taxes that were withheld from my paychecks. they

used a commercial payroll agency which withheld and

documented the full withholdings per paycheck. my w-2 reported

considerably less. they claim they can seize these taxes for

payment for company property they claim i retained. can they

confiscate monies paid by me for federal income tax withholding?
