California law requires that regardless of the reason your employment ends, all accrued but unused vacation time must be paid at termination. Keep in mind that this does not necessarily mean all the time you would have accrued if you remained with the company till the end of the year. Whether this means the entire 50 hours or not will depend on the employer's accrual policy.

Under California law, unless otherwise stipulated by a collective bargaining agreement, whenever the employment relationship ends, for any reason whatsoever, and the employee has not used all of his or her earned and accrued vacation, the employer must pay the employee at his or her final rate of pay for all of his or her earned and accrued and unused vacation days. Labor Code Section 227.3. Because paid vacation benefits are considered wages, such pay must be included in the employee’s final paycheck.

A fair percentage of states require the payout of vacation at termination. Your PA does not happen to be one of them, though.
