It depends on what kind of "emergency leave" you are referring to. In the US there is a certain type of MEDICAL leave known as the Family Medical Leave Act (FMLA) which requires employers to grant medical time off dependent upon the requestor's family medical circumstance. In other cases, time off (other than medical) can be granted under so-called "emergency" conditions (i.e.: the sudden occurrence of an unforseen event) but this leave would be counted against that employees regular annual leave amount.
A qualified employee must request FMLA leave BEFORE it is needed, or as soon as the leave has begun if an emergency. The employee must submit the required medical certification within 15 days of demand.
In the U.S. there is a law that is called the Family Medical Leave Act (FMLA). If your employer did not follow the law in your instance of family 'emergency' you could have action taken against them.

If you truly had an injury/illness when you went on medical leave, then it should be ok. If you took medical leave so that you can interview with potential employers- thats fraud.
