Any amount of tax actually deducted and withheld under this act shall be held to be a special fund in trust for the Division of Taxation. No employee shall have any right of action against his employer in respect to any moneys deducted and withheld from his wages and paid over to the Division of Taxation in compliance or in intended compliance with this act.
