I just finished 3 reports to U.E. for claims this week. The last one I sent 20 pages of documentation regarding the ex-employee's continued inability to do the job right even after retraining. I'm told our company has never lost when it comes to unemployment. Like i said, we document everything.

It's there for you for this time. There is a humongoid pamphlet that the state of MD has for you to download. It says, among other things, that you are eligible if you are out of work through no fault of your own, and are actively looking for work. So it is hard to tell. But you need to apply immediately. If they ask you on the phone, simply say, "I was terminated, through no fault of my own. I am looking for work every day." You might also call and ask your former employer/HR person what they will say to the unemployment people. In many cases, companies say only neutral things to avoid liability, so you would be eligible. So read the pamphlet, apply for unemployment on Monday morning, and look every day for a job you will do well at. Hope they don't delete your question for posting it in three different categories!

If you can prove that you were discriminated against or harassed, you may have a case - but you'd have to have evidence to support that claim.

Go ahead and apply - the state unemployment people will ask you for more detail, and also contact the employer for their version, then make a decision.
