My question involves labor and employment law for the state of: Nevada.
After completing 12 weeks of FMLA (6 of which were paid short term disability) after the birth of my baby boy, I found out that my employer was planning to cut my hours, so I resigned. A few weekds after my resignation, I received a letter from them requesting reimbursement for 3 months worth of THEIR portion of my medical benefits (not my portion that usually came out of my check). I understand that they can request this, however I am wondering if this part of the law would apply to the 6 weeks of paid leave....
"(d) When an employee elects or an employer requires paid leave to be
substituted for FMLA leave, the employer may not recover its (share of)
health insurance or other non-health benefit premiums for any period of
FMLA leave covered by paid leave. Because paid leave provided under a
plan covering temporary disabilities (including workers' compensation)
is not unpaid, recovery of health insurance premiums does not apply to
such paid leave."

Also, I never received any official paperwork from my employer stating my FMLA was approved or denied, other than an email verificaition of my submittal. I was told verbally that they may want to recover my usual premiums that came out of my paycheck, and I agreed to that, but nothing was ever mentioned about them recovering their portions until I got the letter.
