If the employee accepts a severance agreement, they still have the right to file for unemployment, BUT.......the employer can contest it, correct?
The severance was offered with the employee's resignation.
Please help clarify.

You usually don't qualify for unemployment if you voluntarily quit a job. There can be exceptions. Your state's unemployment insurance office should be able to advise you as to whether your resignation would affect your qualification; otherwise, you could consider applying to see if your application is approved.
