Yes. Your case still continues. However, if the termination is related to your injury you can file a Labor Code 132(a) petition for penalty. I strongly recommend that you build up your worker's compensation case by retaining an experienced attorney. Feel free to call us at 213.388.7070 for a free consultation.
