You don't even have the right to request a farewell party.
Rule 1 is always keep your mouth shut about looking until you have a new offer in hand. When they find out, they can claim that you were job hunting instead of doing your paid job or they can cliam you were probably sharing company confidential info during an interview with competitors. If they are pissed you are leaving, there is always a reason to get rid of you.

Most states have at-will employment. This means that the employer or employee can terminate the employment relationship at any time without notice or reason. If you're in one of these states you really have no rights. The only way to go after an employer is to prove they violated a constitutional right. Searching for a job doesn't fall under anything, but imagine if the opposite could occur where a firm could come after you for lost revenue when you quit! It definitely shines badly on the firm, but if you are job searching while retaining another job, it's always good to tell prospective companies not to contact your current employer at least until the final stage of interviews if at all.

A company can not terminate an employee for applying for a different job.

Talk to an attorney about your situation, one that deals with employment issues, and they will file a claim with the state; EEOC or Employment Security.
It is the company retaliating against you for seeking other employment. The same situation happened to me, but I got demoted from my management position and my pay docked. I have an attorney now, and we are just waiting for the EEOC to have a meeting with my old employer.

It relies upon on what style of violation.

You would have to talk to a lawyer about that, but I'm wondering how your employer knew you were looking for another job. If you were doing it on company time, using their equipment, I don't think you would win your case.

If you're looking for another job anyway, it probably doesn't matter much. I know it was rude of them not to give you the option of resigning, but don't sweat it.

None, that company has certain obligations that they hold. If they don't want to hire you (based on race, sex, no - experience, etc.) they can do so.
You can question their decision by asking them yourself. Explain to them that they made a stupid decision not to hire you.
GOOD LUCK JOB HUNTING, I HOPE I HELPED

Does any employer have the right to fire any employee?

None, if you don't belong to a union.
Unions protect your rights.
