What is the name of your state?ny I have been working at my job for 6 yrs I was injured in a auto accident on aug 30th 2003 in which my upper back and neck was injured severe muscle sprain and 2 bulging disc c5 and c6 on sept 19th 2003 my doctor took me out of work i was out of work until feb 17th 2004.. my company paid 100% of my wages while i was out of work.. when i returned to work there was alot of tension between me and my manager, he gave me a good evaluation not a great one for 2003, our evaluations are done once a year..In may i got wrote up for work performance on a specific assignment i was working on.. on july 23 2004 i got a call from my daughter in mt saying my mother was in the hospital she has had cancer for 5 yrs anyways i arranged time off from work from 7/26-8/04 subject to change depending on how my mother was doin to fly from ny to mt.. I left on july 25th my mother passed away before i got there.. I called the supervisor of who i was instructed by the manager to call if i needed more time ect.. so i called him on july 26 told him my mom passed away, with my company you get 1 week for death of an immediate family member, so with that i asked if i could return to work on the 8th instead using only 1 week vacation.. of which i had 3 weeks left anyways so i get back on the 8th everything seemed normal then on 8/13 i get a call to the managers office, i walk into his office he says they are terminating me for not reporting back to work on the 5th of aug, supposedly the supervisor said i did not call an ask for this extra 2 days time off.. anyways i belong to a union ibew they were in the middle of negotiations of a new contract so they would not support my termination!!! what a bunch of crap by the way our union is very small and weak.. I've never had much faith in our union since day 1.. anyways i applied for unemployment the company fought benefits saying there was miconduct on my behalf,, anyways we had a hearing which i won the investigator said there was no evidence of exsessive absentees from work i have never been wrote up or even been warned before this.. the state of ny concluded there was no reason for termination.. do i possibly have a wrongful termination case based on these facts...
