I was denied unemployment due to misconduct. I shorted a register $* due to multiple debit card attempts and then typing in the wrong amount at the end. I have previous written warnings due to putting money in the wrong registers, but this is my first time losing company money. I have an EDD hearing and would like legal advice on how to fight it in my favor.

I reached the maximum amount of write ups. I was supposed to be given a write-up, but was terminated instead.
In California, employers generally have the right to terminate employees at their discretion. However, if your termination violates a written or implied agreement, it might be considered wrongful. Gather evidence showing you were supposed to receive a write-up instead of termination.
Due to the amount.
It's important to demonstrate that your termination was unjustified.
