I searched and found an article.

From page 2:
Fired employees can claim unemployment benefits if they were terminated because of financial cutbacks or because they were not a good fit for the job for which they were hired. They can also receive benefits if the employer had a good reason to fire the person but the infractions were relatively minor, unintentional, or isolated.
In most states, however, a fired employee will not be able to receive unemployment benefits if he or she was fired for “misconduct.” Although you may think that any action that leads to termination would constitute misconduct, the unemployment laws don’t look at it that way. Not all actions that result in termination are serious enough to qualify as misconduct and justify denying benefits.
