I got terminated the day after my short term dissability ended.

If you are older than 40, the release likely provides for a 21 day review period followed by a 7 day revocation period, in compliance with the Older Workers Benefit Protection Act. In addition, they are permitted to make distribution in accordance with payroll policies. In other words, they can make the distribution on the next payroll date after the expiry of the revocation period.

Your question fails to note when you signed the release. That's the key date, not the day you were fired.
