I was fired obver the phone driving home from work after I turned my manager in for company violations and fraud do i have a case?

This involves almost 1 year of my manager harassing me after I became ill, creating a hostile workplace, retaliation, forcing me to perform at a unreal level above all the other supervisor’s, placing me on a Performance Improvement Plan giving me until March 13 to comply, and firing me on February 25th for failing to meet the percentage on a audit, my Improvement Plan said I had until March 13. I made several complaints to HR that were all dismissed by my managers friend the HR Rep for our district. Oddly enough the big deal with this corp. was getting 100% execution, I did almost every week.

If you believe that you were terminated in retaliation for complaints that you made with respect to work place harassment as you have written, you may have a very good claim for wrongful termination under state and federal law in this country. I suggest that you consult with an attorney that practices in the area of employment law as well as consider making a complaint about what happened with your local department of labor.
