Legal Question in Employment Law in California

Hello.

Your situation is unfortunate, but to determine whether the termination is actually wrongful, more facts are needed. As you can imagine, the employer has an obligation to investigate any allegations and the company is in a precarious position when such allegations are made as it has to protect the alleged victims first but then also protect your rights.

Resigning has a downside - you will not be eligible for unemployment benefits. I am not sure if you care about this, but this is something to keep in mind.

If you would like to discuss this further, feel free to follow up.

Thanks,

You do not have a 'case' unless you can unconditionally prove that the charges against you were false, and that the company actually knew they were false. Probably not something you are going to be able to do.

Also, even if you can prove that, 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 fired any time for any reason, with or without �cause�, explanation or notice. The employee's goal should be to keep the employer happy.
