Yes, as long as you were not fired because of violation of major policies, gross negligence in your job, or a demonstrated inability to do your job. You will be asked questions when you apply for unemployment that help TWC determine if you meet the eligibility requirements.
Example: woman was fired by a boss who was embezzling and thought the employee had discovered it. The TWC investigator did her job, uncovered the discrepancies in the employer's report, and awarded benefits to the employee.
Example: an RN was fired after missing meetings and letting her license lapse, making her unable to do her job and causing an undue burden on her fellow RN's. She is not eligible for benefits.

If your felony involved unemployment fraud, then no. Otherwise it may depend on the offense involved and the Texas unemployment office would be the arbiter in that case. Generally, unemployment has to do with loss of job through no fault of your own, so you would know best under these circumstances.
