This slip opinion is subject to revision and may not reflect the final opinion adopted by the Court. Opinion Missouri Court of Appeals Western District Case Style: Brian J. Tennis, Appellant, v. City of Kirksville, Employer, and Division of Employment Security, Respondent. Case Number: 54054 Handdown Date: 11/18/1997 Appeal From: Labor and Industrial Relations Commission Counsel for Appellant: Brian J. Tennis Counsel for Respondent: Ronnae L. Coleman Opinion Summary: None Citation: Opinion Author: PER CURIAM Opinion Vote: AFFIRMED. Smart, P.J., Lowenstein and Stith, J.J., concur. Opinion: ORDER Mr. Brian J. Tennis appeals the decision made by the Labor and Industrial Relations Commission, which found that he was disqualified for unemployment benefits because he had voluntarily left work without good cause attributable to his work or his employer. He claims that he was discharged, and that if he did quit, it was for good cause attributable to his work or to his employer. The Commission's factual findings are supported by competent and substantial evidence, and thus, our review is limited to whether, given these facts, the Commission has misapplied the law. We hold that it has not. Finding no precedential value to our decision, we affirm the Commission's decision by this summary order but have provided the parties with a memorandum setting out the reasons for our decision. Rule 84.16(b). Separate Opinion:
None This slip opinion is subject to revision and may not reflect the final opinion adopted by the Court.

The court affirmed the dismissal of plaintiff's disability discrimination and hostile work environment claims under the Missouri Human Rights Act because she failed to plead facts demonstrating legal disability or a hostile work environment based on disability. However, the court reversed and remanded the retaliation claim, finding that plaintiff alleged sufficient facts establishing the elements of retaliation under the Act based on her complaints of disability discrimination.
