I quit a job about 4 months ago and although had been getting all my paychecks deposited directly into my account they chose to cut actual checks for my last 2 pay periods. This was fine but when they did it they accidentally deposited directly both of the paychecks into my checking account in addition to giving me actual checks (They paid me twice). They have now found their error (about 4 months after it happened) and now want me to pay them. I could pay them and understand it would be ethically wrong to not give them the money back but is there some kind of statute of limitations regarding this? It took them 4 months to catch the mistake. I normally would just pay it back even if there was some kind of legal loophole but in this situation I really wouldn't mind sticking it to my ex-employer. Any responses to my question are appreciated.
