What is the name of your state? New York
I was granted umemployment benefits after my phone interview with the claims examiner. I faxed the claims dept. a copy of a letter I had written to the EEOC describing my reasons for leaving along with documented incidents. The EEOC sent me all this paperwork I need to mail out, but in the intrem, I just received a letter from a lawyers office stating that my former employer is appealing my case, because 1. I voluntarily left. 2. denies all allegations of perverse sexual harassment and discrimination and 3. he wasn't granted due cause.
How should I go about this now? Should I contact the EEOC for advise? DO I just wait now for a hearing? What if I'm moving to another state and can't be at the hearing in person, would they grant me a hearing over the phone?
This is the first time going thru this. Not sure what to do.
