My question involves unemployment benefits for the state of: CA
Okay, So I was released from my job in February. I was the office manager of a very very small business. I am also going to school part-time for teaching. My boss (the owner) knew I was going to school (at night). I was starting my 5-week student teaching soon, I let my boss know ahead of time, but I did not get a date from the school yet. My boss flipped out, hired a person he could not afford, and had a meeting with me. He told me that he could not afford to pay for an extra person, and since I was going to school, he had to say goodbye to me (which I assume meant I was being laid off).
I said ok and I filed for unemployment. My boss then tried to set up days where I would work once a month there. When he got the unemployment letter, he fired my sister and refused to talk to me. I emailed him when he wanted me to come in and he never responded.
He told unemployment I quit because of school. There's no verbal or written proof that I quit. I told my agent during phone interview. Denied. I appealed, and now my court date is May 13.
I have no proof of his laying me off, no pink slip, contract, exit interview paperwork, nothing. I am going to court, do I have a chance to win?
