asked

I was unlawfully fired from my job at a university in California and was out of work for 7 months. My employer wants to settle to avoid court and compensate me for lost income and emotional distress. I received unemployment benefits during this time. Can I ask for compensation only for emotional damage and not for lost income? How should I handle taxes for this type of settlement?
