But, if you consider it theft, the theft occurs at the time the payroll is set, not each time it is paid. If I rob a bank, you start the clock from the time of the robbery. It does not get reset every time I spend some of the stolen money.
The department CAN waive the time period but is not obligated to do so.
So. If i withdrawl money from your account illegally, its totaly cool if its discovered after the statute of limitations is up because the amount of theft was set when i originally placed the fraudulent withdrawl?
Each time you are payed is a new instance of theft. As each time you are payed, without the discrimination, your pay would have been higher.
In your Office Space scenario, the crime happens each time you take the money. You would have the possibility of many charges because you did it many times.
If you look at the statute of limitations, it was put in place so that people can't work for twenty years and then claim that an act of discrimination 18 years ago should be rectified with 18 years of speculative back pay.
What you have in this case is four Justices who don't like how the law was written and think it should be changed. That is not their job. If the want to change laws, they should run for Congress.
From my reading of the law, if it is past whatever statue of limitations applies (based on type of robbery, amount and jurisdiction), I don't think the bank can make a claim against you.
However, if you didn't report your stolen money as "Other Income" in the tax period which you acquired it, the IRS can still get you for tax evasion.
