The law states you cannot collect unemployment if you were fired for cause, doesn't matter if it was a minor infraction or major one.

Retirement age does not come into the question, but rather whether the reason was justified and what your work history is that would make you eligible for unemployment benefits. Being fired for a minor infraction would be investigated by the state investigator to determine if it was, in fact, a bonified "minor infraction" or trumped up to avoid the unemployment claim from being charged against the employer.
