In Pennsylvania an employee without a contract for a specific term of employment is deemed an at-will employee. Subject to certain exceptions (e.g., age, gener and other discrimination, violations of public policy), an at-will employee can be terminated for any reason or no reason at all.  The outcome of your unemployment comp case does not indicate that you were unlawfully terminated.  Even if the reasons given by your employer intially for your termination were totally wrong, they can still terminate you for no reason or a different reason.  I'm sorry that's surely not what you want to hear.  Perhaps if you consult with an attorney and provide them with more detail about your situation, other claims that you may have can be identified.
