I received unemployment in 2007 after being laid off from my job about 6 months after not finding a job I got a part time job and reported all my hours to EDD. I then left California to Nevada to stay with friends because I was offered a job and then they decided not to hire me. EDD tried to contact me and say that I owed them money in back pay from the beginning which my umemployment began $21000. I ended up getting some phone hearing appeals and missing them because of I moved and they were sent to me by mail and it would get forwarded to me and by the time I got them I missed the court date. Now it's to the Superior Court of CA and they won't help in any way. I'm very un clear on a lot of the legal stuff. Basically they are saying I owe them $21,000 because I quit my parttime (which I reported all hours) job and the handbook says I'm not allowed to quit a job while on EDD. I had always kept in contact with EDD on what I was doing. So now I need help. I was laid off this year for a couple months and received unemployment however they took it all from me as well as my taxes to payback what they say I owe them. If you can please contact me regarding this I would appreciate it or direct me to someone who can help me.
