I'm not a lawyer, and I know this is coming a little
late, but New Jersey is an "at-will" employment state,
which means that you can be fired for any reason (other
than illegal discrimination), just as you can quit for
any reason, unless otherwise stipulated in a contract
you've entered into with your employer.

According to this, you may be considered to have
committed "simple" misconduct which could disqualify
you from unemployment for a few weeks. However, they
may not consider it misconduct at all, and there is a
chance that you could still receive them.
I hope you did! Remember: your employer cannot lie.
It is illegal.
