can my employer with hold my last checks without any notice

[1516000]

So when I was hired my company paid me my weekly while on probation. Then I was put on commission. I was told it would be a month till I would receive my first commission check and I could choose to continue receiving weekly checks till my first commission check then repay the company weekly back.. A year passed and nothing was set up or meantioned. I found a different job and gave my two weeks recently. My checks are direct deposit and I had just sent out all my bills as normal. Then found out I was overdrawn in my account and had over 100.00 in bounced check fees and counting. I called the company and that's the first I found out they had planned to with hold my last two checks for back pay. I understand I needed to pay the money back but is there a law that the employer has to give some sort of notice before withholding checks? Im out 1600.00 and at least if I knew they were gonna with hold it and how much was being held would have been discussed I would not have sent out all the payments. Honestly when they didn't bring the repayment up after a year I figured they may have decided not to make me repay it because I had more then doubled there sales in one year. No problem paying back but no notice?! Not cool?! But is it legal? Thanks

I can't find any SOL pertaining to recovery, but WI does not require your authorization.

You worked on commission with a draw. It is your responsibility to track the relationship between your draw and commission.
