My employer illegally deducted $200 from my paycheck.

My final paycheck was sent over 2 weeks late. Then, when I finally get it in the mail, I see that it is short $200 — over half of my paycheck — and they left a sticky note saying it was deducted for “lock change” costs. I mailed them back the key. There was no reason to even have the locks changed. This was done maliciously. I filed a wage claim with the California Dept. of Industrial Relations (state labor dept). I left an Indeed review. Is there anything else I can do? It makes me sick they are still in business and no one knows how scummy they are.
