Legal Question in Personal Injury in Texas

I work for a marina that was almost destroyed by a hurricane (Sept 2008). We came back to work the following week, however, I later found that our office manager applied for unemployment benefits, signing MY name to the questionnaire sent out by the state. I found the form she'd signed and hidden, and checked the fax machine activity report, she had faxed it in to TWC. I have strong reason to believe she also impersonated me on the phone with TWC, assuring them that she had indeed lost her job in order to obtain payments fraudulently. I turned this over to Texas Workforce Commission, but as yet, nothing seems to have been done and I continue to experience anxiety, stress, etc over being unwillingly involved in this scam. Do I have a case against her? I feel like this is always "looming" over me, and as a heart patient (heart attack in May 2009) should try to avoid stress whenever possible.

Talk to an employment lawyer about firing her.

In writing, request update on your complaint with TWC.
