How to defend yourself against a wrongful case of embezzlement?

I am working in the finance department of an organization. I mistakenly deposited excess salary into my own account and then later on deposited back again in the company account.

In all this, I have approvals and signatures from every person which clearly shows that it's a mistake and clearly shows that my intentions were not wrong. Now the company terminates me and a legal advisor will file a case on me.

I need your help and support on this matter.

Dear Questioner,

They cannot fire you on the grounds that you deposited excessive money by accident since you returned it before they warned you.

Furthermore, they should have handed you notice about the incident and subsequently terminated your employment if it occurred again.

If you need any further information or legal assistance, do not hesitate to contact us on the phone or by email.

Regards,
