⚖️  Law

I was fired because I left out some short-term employers from my initial work application. My employer found out seven months later and fired me, despite being a good and valued employee. Two supervisors wrote letters on my behalf asking for my re-hire. I appealed the firing, but they never responded to my appeal. My employer based their denial on California code 1256, which allows denial of an appeal if discharged for misconduct, and they claim I knowingly entered false information. I did not enter false information; I left out jobs lasting six months or less, not intentionally but to save time and space on the application. As part of my appeal, I listed all missing jobs with contacts. They never informed me of the appeal's status.
