My question involves unemployment benefits for the state of: California

Hello. My ruling came back denied for misconduct.

The policy break involved a transaction that was initially tendered by an employee while I was not working. I followed up on recouping the co-pay. An audit was performed and this transaction was discovered, discussed and documented in may of this year. I admitted my involvement as the transaction in question had occurred three to four weeks prior to the audit.

Management ('loss prevention', HR, and my supervisor) was aware of the 'policy break' for 7.5 weeks until I was terminated.

The initial break of policy and intention to carry it out was in fact facilitated by another employee. Also they let me continue to work there after a violation for 7.5 weeks before deciding to let me go.

We're they not excusing this very violation for almost two months? Do I have a case for condonation?

Thanks to all who take the time to weigh in.
