Yes, you can be on administrative leave with pay, and without pay.
With or without pay is legal.
In many cases, with or without pay is a prelude to termination.
To be sure, you should ask your supervisor/manager, HR Rep, or your payroll manager.

If you were shorted on your check you can file a wage claim with the state.

Yes, you can be put on leave without pay unless you have a CBA or other binding employment contract to the contrary.

Did you ask your employer why you were not paid for all time actually worked? If necessary, you can file a wage claim.

(Not sure why this question was posted in the "real estate law" forum & titled "water".)
