Missouri Court of Appeals, Southern District / Sep 7, 2022
ROBYN PRICE, Appellant vs. MIDWEST HEALTH CONSULTING, INC. and DIVISION OF EMPLOYMENT SECURITY, Respondents
Robyn Price appealed the Labor and Industrial Relations Commission's denial of her claim for unemployment benefits, which stemmed from a reduction in work hours from Midwest Health Consulting, Inc. The Commission affirmed the Appeals Tribunal's decision that Price was ineligible because she was not unemployed, despite working only four to six hours per week. The appellate court affirmed the Commission's decision, holding that Price failed to meet her burden of providing evidence necessary to calculate her weekly benefit amount, a prerequisite for partial unemployment benefits.
