You're in an interesting position.

He owes you a weeks' notice. Which is what you would legally have had to give him, had you fired him.

Of course, I would tell him that. In fact, since he's moving to a competitor, you should go after the week's notice anyway. The guy's got a nerve.

Don't pay him for the fourth day and tell him if he thinks he really deserves this extra day, that you can see him in court where you'll be countering by asking the judge for the 5 days he owes you.

Betcha he disappears really quickly.

I would also implement a policy going forward that in order to be paid for the accumulated days, the employee must work the entire month.
