Your former employer isn’t disputing your claim, and you’ll soon receive your unemployment benefits.

Well, I love you @SadieMartinPaul!

Probably that they are not contesting paying you unemployment, and you will get it.

No-show on employment dispute usually means they do not have a defensible case.
Checks should start soon.
Have you contacted an labor attorney for “wrongful dismissal”, you may have a case there too. The lawyer will take the case without up front money, if you were in my state I have a couple of labor lawyers I know that would take your case.

I’ve looked. I can’t find any who work on contingency. Kansas is an at-will employer, which means they can dismiss you for almost any reason, except against federal laws. I think the only things I could file on would be the Americans With Disabilities (in this case percieved or imagined disabilities) and slander.

Maybe your lawyers could recommend a lawyer in Kansas for me?

Lawyers should not charge upfront. Your 22 page diary will make things easier.

In a “work at will” state, employers hold all the cards; there is no such thing as “wrongful dismissal”. At best, they can cite another reason for your termination, leaving you with a hefty burden of proof.

The fact that they didn’t contest your unemployment could mean they don’t want any sort of legal involvement that may lead to investigation, but the odds are heavily in favor of them just not wanting you to work for them but not bearing you any ill will either. Of the two unemployment cases I’ve seen contested, one involved a grudge between the ex-employer and claimant, and the other was an employee who was terminated with cause (fired for theft) but tried filing anyways. As your case involves neither, just start skimming the job listings and don’t worry about it.

But if they break federal laws, @jerv, they’re still in trouble, even if they are an at-will employer.

Thanks Trop Willie.

@Dutchess_III Technically yes, but try proving it.

Right.
