Can a company file for cap expempt H1B for unused petition

[rs2711]

Hi,

 

I got my H1B approved through current employer but never got it stamped.

Now if I quit the company can a new firm apply for my H1B cap exempt any time of the year?

_{I do not have any petition documents / receipt number with me. The current employer will not share any details.}

_{Can the new employer still file for a cap exempt H1 without this information?}
