If I incriminated myself over an act that resulted in a final outcome of termination with cause, do I have any leg to stand on based on the fact it was not a deliberate process to get reinstated or the penalty reduced?

Very often companies allege cause based on actual misconduct that doesn't rise to the level of cause, meaning that the employee is still entitled to a severance package.
