Appeal your unemployment and exhaust any appeal to the State Board
You should always appeal any denial of an unemployment claim because you are entitled to a hearing on the denial of a claim. You can get a copy of your unemployment file beforehand to discover what your employer is claiming as the grounds for your discharge and then prepare a defense to that claim.
You may have a right to appeal to the State Personnel Board of Review (SPBR) if you are a public employee in the classified civil service. If so, and if you believe that you were terminated without just cause, you should probably appeal your termination to SPBR. Normally you have a very short period of time (say a week to 30 days) to make the appeal, so do not delay.
Due to the lack of detail in your question I cannot give you a more specific answer and caution you that this is not legal advise. If you would like to get specific legal advise, please call Jenny at 330.665.5445, ext. 0 to schedule a consultation (see policy below).
