Legal Question in Employment Law in Minnesota

Being payed still after quitting

After quitting a company that treats employees poorly I�m still receiving paychecks. I was a salary employee so I�m assuming that they never removed me from their pay roll. I�m wondering if I�m legally able to cash those checks and keep them? I know morally I shouldn�t but I have a strong dislike for this company.
