My husband was informed today that there was a glitch in the system and everyone was overpaid for the holiday last week. They will be deducting the money from his next check, which should have overtime on it. Is this legal, as it will reduce his hours and

He worked 25 hours and had 16 hours of holiday pay. His check was for 40 hrs plus 16 holiday hours. His employer states to "enjoy this check because I will be taking it out of next week's hours worked", which is about 42-43 hours. Once they deduct the 15 hour overpayment he will no longer be over 40, although he worked it. The system doesn't give overtime unless they have 40 hours in the "regular pay" field first, so he will lose the time and a half for 2-3 hours of work that he earned.
