Legal Question in Employment Law in New York

I was fired from J.p. morgan chase oct 2008 for reversing checking account fee's for other banker's in my branch. I was not warned and was under the assumption that we were allowed free accounts and that if you were being issued fees that the account was set up wrong. Now for those action i was terminated as well as 6 other bankers there was a total of 10 bankers investigated in which all reversed fee's. 6 fired 4 warned and was able to keep there jobs. Now as for the people fired chase reported on there U-5 which is our brokers license that we refunded fees using erroneous codes. The codes used was not erroneous but even available to us. Now because of these false statements my self and the other banker fired will never be able to work in the industry again. Now the question is do we have a discrimination law suit because all the bankers involved was not terminated and statements placed on there record. 2 do we have a defamation of character for non investment related statement on our records that prohibits us from working in the banking industry ever again
