Missouri Court of Appeals, Western District / May 30, 2023
Susan Miller vs. Division of Employment Security
Susan Miller appealed a decision by the Labor and Industrial Relations Commission, which disqualified her from receiving unemployment benefits due to discharge for work-related misconduct. Miller argued that proper procedures were not followed during the review of her claim and that the Commission's factual findings were not supported by evidence. The appellate court affirmed the Commission's decision, finding Miller's procedural complaints unpreserved or without merit, and deferring to the Commission's credibility determinations regarding her discharge for chronic attendance policy violations.
