That's not the part I'm asking about. I'm curious about interpretation of how they worded this: You are not eligible to receive benefits under california unemployment insurance code section 1256 beginning 7/05/09 and continuing until you return to work after the disqualifying act and earn $1510.00 or more in bona fide employment, and you contact the above office to reopen your claim.
Stopped by a friend's shop and got a little info from one of his guys. Turns out both he and his dad went through this, getting denied for unemployment after getting fired because they made the mistake of signing a piece of paper, a piece of paper you don't have to sign evidently. That's probably what's screwing me now, cause they got me to sign it by saying it was the only way to get my last check at that time. They didn't disclose to me that I may be making it look as if I agreed with the terms of my termination by signing it, which I obviously never would have done had I known better! He said the difference would have been I wouldn't have received my last check until I got approved for unemployment, or something like that. I'll still appeal if it comes to it, but hopefully I can explain this all to the judge when I meet with him and he'll see the deception on their part.
She also strongly suggested I file an appeal since I feel so strongly about my case. Bummer is, she says it's a 13 week process. I don't know what I'll be doing in 3 months
