More details to this question:
I received a formal offer for a Director position at high tech company on 2/20 and resigned my job the same day. I signed the offer letter on 2/24 and sent back on 2/25. I completed my new hire paperwork on 2/25 and sent in on 3/2 in the morning. The company rescinded my offer on 3/2 in the afternoon. They indicated thY they didn't think I was serious about the opportunity and said that I should put more thought in making my decision.

Sounds like you may certainly have a claim based on a promissory estoppel theory and potentially based on breach of a written contract as well. I would have to hear more and see the documents, but assuming that there was some communication between you and the new company and that they had not given you a deadline that you missed, I think you likely have a claim.
Thanks,
Jon
