Denied unemployment, how do I appeal? - any advice?

I was told my separation was for misconduct, which is not what happened. There are 6 people counting on me, so I am trying to be careful. I have not done a hearing before and I am nervous. Did you bring documents or only talk?

File the appeal before the deadline, even if you are unsure. You can gather documents afterwards. That is the one part I would not wait on.
