The Division of Employment Security's Appeals Tribunal and the Labor and Industrial Relations Commission both found that Hoeft did not engage in misconduct. On appeal, the Eastern District affirmed the Commission's decision, holding that tardiness is distinct from an absence under the relevant statute and that Hoeft's prior absences did not constitute chronic absenteeism.","primaryTopic":"administrative-law","topicSlugs":["administrative-law","employment-law","standard-of-review","appellate-procedure"],"outcomeNorm":"unknown","officialSourceUrl":"https://www.courts.mo.gov/file.jsp?id=160539","detailUrl":"https://ott.law/missouri-courts/opinions/lisa-hoeft-respondent-v-true-manufacturing-company-inc-appellant-and-divi-108292","relatedPracticeAreas":[{"slug":"employment","label":"Employment Law","href":"/practice-areas/employment","score":38,"source":"tag","evidence":["tag: employment","topic: employment-law","text: employment","text: employer"],"url":"https://ott.law/practice-areas/employment"},{"slug":"litigation","label":"Civil Litigation","href":"/practice-areas/litigation","score":12,"source":"topic","evidence":["topic: appellate-procedure"],"url":"https://ott.law/practice-areas/litigation"}],"role":"respondent"}]}
