Sec. 1650.113  Liquidation of final check.

    When the employee retires or resigns or if his or her employment or 
period of active duty ends before the debt is collected in full, the 
employee's debt will be automatically deducted from the final payments 
(e.g., final salary payment, lump-sum leave, etc.) due the employee to 
the extent necessary to

liquidate the debt. If the employee's final pay is not sufficient to 
permit all deductions to be made, the order of precedence for the 
deductions will be: retirement and FICA; Medicare; Federal income taxes; 
health benefits; group life insurance; indebtedness due to the United 
States; State income taxes; and voluntary deductions and allotments.
