I recently had a telephone interview with EDD and was asked by the interviewer if I had an uncontrollable propencity to use drugs. He said he was asking this because my employer put something in their letter about drugs. Upon accepting termination, I was told by my employer that this information was confidential and could not legally be released. How do I access the information that was sent to them? Also, if my UI claim is denied, do I have grounds for legal action?

Did you claim you were fired for no good cause? If that is your claim and in fact you were fired for a dirty drug test, you probably waived any privilege you might have had.
Without more information about the specifics of the case you will not be getting a complete answer. If UI is very important then it might be worth paying an attorney a consultation fee in your area to review your case. Good luck with your situation - remember this is general information and not specific advice. Matthew Williamson |
