Company ins plan offers 26 weeks disability pay. fmla offers 12 weeks. I was 3 days before fmla 12weeks was up

our employee health ins hand book clearly states we are entiteled to 26 weeks of disability benefit payments. this is the health ins plan the company offered. ifyour covered for 26 weeks of disability benefits under their ins plan, how can they fire you using fmla as their excuse? I was fired 3 days before the 12 weeks of fmla time limit was reached? I contacted EEOC and ohio's civil rights commission. they both sided with the company, saying the didn't do anything wrong. I paid extra for the family health insurance which turned out to be useless and a waste of my money. something doesn't
sound right. what are my options on filing a civil lawsuit, is there a time limit on civil suits.

You CAN NOT be fired while out on FMLA. They do not have to extend you additional time off (but your disability insurance plan should be paying you if you're disabled). I can't believe EEOC told you the company was not in violation. Do you have a labor union? If so, contact them first. If not, find a lawyer who specializes in employment law. Your first consultation should be free. Good Luck.
