What is the name of your state?

I have been out for 4 weeks on W/C following surgery on both elbows for Cubital Tunnel Syndrome. I will be out for 3 more weeks to fully recover.
When I return to work, I will have about 14 hours of unused PTO time left in my bank. My Manager has informed me that they will not authorize any time off for me, due to me being out for so long, and I will lose what is left of my PTO time.
My company does not allow for "rollover" of PTO to the next year, even in this case.
It's not like I want to take the time off in terms of full days, I thought about burning it up by leaving an hour or two early here and there. But they claim that since they have had to deny time off to others because of my absence and the fact that they are short handed due to three others leaving our department, my manager has decided that I will have to lose 14 hours of paid time.
This amounts to about $200.00 in benefits I will lose as a result of my injury. Not a whole lot to most people, but after losing 33% of my income for 7 weeks, it means alot to me.
Is this legal for them to do and is there any way the IC would be responsible for compensating me for my lost time?What is the name of your state?What is the name of your state?
