Well, considering it is legal to fire someone for no reason at all, or any reason that is not prohibited by anti-discrimination laws or whistle-blower protection laws, then no, I guess it is not illegal to fire someone for actually doing something wrong.
No.
In general, unless an employee is civil service, in a union, or has a written employment contract, they are an 'at will' employee that can be disciplined or terminated any time for any reason, with or without �cause�, explanation or notice.
They had actual 'cause', a loss of money attributed to you or suspected.
Unless there is a contract or some type of union agreement that was violated, then NO
