Yes. According to California State Code, an employer must compensate an employee for services rendered if the employee tendered reasonable notice prior to self-termination.

I assume you mean for the 2 weeks that you didn't work there, but would have before quitting if you weren't forced out.
Unfortunately, probably not. If they walked you out like that, you were probably working there "at will". This essentially means that you or your employer could terminate employment at ANY TIME without prior notice. The fact that you didn't NEED to give notice is the same reason they could walk you out whenever they wanted.
Essentially, the reason you gave notice wasn't because you HAD to... you were being nice. Future employers will understand that. Keep a copy of your resignation (where you said you'd give two weeks) to show to any future interviews, if they ask.

You never implied as to how many days they worked AFTER giving notice. A formal notice is in NO WAY a guarantee that you will have your employment for two more weeks. Its just a business way of telling everyone you are moving on. Personally, If a company can fire at a moments notice, I can too. I have never given two weeks notice, if I have a problem that cannot be resolved, I simply walk out! They do not OWN YOU!

Yes they are supposed to pay you out for the remainder of your term there. Speak to your union or a lawyer specialising in Industrial Law.
