False information reported to unemployment
Unemployment recently informed me that my case was in jeopard of being dropped due to the fact that an ex employer reported that I was ''fired due to misconduct'' This is not true and in fact I quit and can prove this very easily. Unemployment informed me that they have a letter stating my discharge that was sent to them from this ex employer as well as a statement made from a phone call. Do I have any kind of case against my ex employer??

If you are denied unemployment benefits you will have a right to appeal that decision. If you feel that you were fired or forced out by your employer, other than your own misconduct, then you may have a strong case for unemployment benefits.
If you have any other questions feel free to contact me. Take care.
