I am assuming you deny the allegations.  they are not legally able to withhold your final paycheck.  You could file a complaint against them with the PA department of labor, wage and hour division to pursue your right to receive your final paycheck.  If the allegations have any merit, you should consider retaining counsel as soon as possible.  I would not suggest that you communicate with your employer or anyone on behalf of your employer in writing about the allegations.
