If unemployment denies you benefits, you can appeal that denial--first internally, with unemployment; and then, if that doesn't work, to the courts. Since you can get unemployment even if on leave, so long as it is extended and you are not being paid while on leave, you should have a good case for receiving benefits. Follow-up with unemployment and, as stated, if denied, ask them how to go about appealing.
