Legal Question in Employment Law in Pennsylvania

Its amazing how often I find myself thinking, "And I thought I had heard everything." You certainly should not call UC and tell them anything of the sort. What is relevant is what you were told at the time.

You do not have a case against your employer just because she lied to you. No law requires your employer to tell you the truth. But, if the lie was used to cover up an illegal motive for firing you, such as a discriminatory reaqson based on your sex, age, race, ethnic origing, disability, etc., then you might have a case against her. If you thik you were the victim of discrimination, you should contact a discrimination lawyer.

It does not make sense to me that an employer would lie to cover up an illegal motive and then turn around and tell the employee they were lying. Then again, it does not make sense that an employer would lie for any reason and then turn around and admit it later.

This answer to your legal inquiry is based upon the limited facts stated in your question. Accurate legal advice is based upon an exchange between a lawyer and a client. The lawyer can then ask about other facts that may change or confirm the answer. Without that exchange, this reply should be considered limited in value. You should rely on this answer only at your own risk. Direct consultation with a lawyer is always recommended. Answering your question does not create an attorney-client relationship.
