Missouri Court of Appeals, Eastern District / Mar 18, 2025
Angela D. Stevens, Appellant, v. BJC Health System and Division of Employment Security, Respondent.
Angela Stevens appealed the Labor and Industrial Relations Commission's decision, which affirmed the Appeals Tribunal's finding that she lacked good cause for missing her unemployment benefits hearing. Stevens, initially disqualified for misconduct, claimed she missed the hearing due to a clerical error in noting the time. The appellate court affirmed the Commission's decision, holding that a clerical error in noting a hearing time does not constitute good cause for failing to appear, and dismissed other points not addressed by the Commission.
