The EDD does not determine whether a wrongful termination occurred. The EDD determines ONLY if you were terminated for a reason that qualifies you or disqualifies you for unemployment benefits. That is a VERY different thing than the legality of your termination. Receiving UI does NOT mean that you were wrongfully terminated. It's a wrongful term ONLY if there is a specific law which prohibits the employer from terming you for the reason he did. I very much doubt that the judge used the words, "wrongful termination" or "wrongly terminated". The vast majority of people collecting UI were legally termed.
So, what was the reason for your termination?
Severance is not required by law in your state.
