What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? California
I was denied my unemployment benefits. I would like to appeal. I feel I was retaliated against and do have some proof: I was given a write-up on 1/7/2010 and then not given any other notice regarding my attendance until my termination on 5/7/2010. Prior to this termination, I had voiced my concerns in being transferred to a work site in Orange County CA, which would have posed a great difficulty to me (when I was hired, I was told I would only be required to work in downtown Los Angeles.)
After the write up on 1-7-10 and until I was fired on 5-11-10, I had been late during that time, but was never told anything from my boss or HR, all they would do is tell me what a good job I was doing at the sites I was at, it was only after I told my boss that I couldn't make it to our orange county office since I had my car in the shop, that he tore me a new backside and told me "I'd be sorry if I don't make it there", then I was told by my HR that it was fine I didn't make it to the OC office, to just go to a different LA office, two days after that I was fired. they never talked to me or anything any of the times I was late, even after I was about 3 hours late, they also used dates I was written up for on 1-7-10, some of the dates I was also out due to a work injury, all the dates I had doctors appointments and was taken off work by the doctor were used in the in write up for my termination. Also after I was late that 3 hours I was told it is don't worry about as long as Im there its ok.
I would like to appeal this but would like to know if anyone else has fought a case like this and won, and if so what steps should I take in appealing it?
I'm in Los Angeles CA
