UNEMPLOYMENT INSURANCE BENEFITS - VOLUNTARY SEPARATION

Here is an interesting consultation. Claimant states Employer fired Claimant but Claimant was denied unemployment benefits because Employer argued to the DOL that Claimant was not fired but quit. Yet in an unrelated litigation, Claimant later discovered that Employer admitted in writing that Claimant was fired. Hearing is scheduled - it will be interesting to hear Employer's explanation of the conflicting statements it made.
