Opinion
No. 18,931.
Decided July 6, 1959. Rehearing denied August 31, 1959.
Application for unemployment compensation. From a judgment affirming an award in favor of claimant the employer brings error.
Affirmed.
1. LABOR RELATIONS — Unemployment Compensation — Disqualification — Voluntary Resignation — Marriage. Where an employee voluntarily quit work to get married, a judgment imposing the maximum disqualification of sixteen weeks under the Unemployment Compensation Act was not error.
Error to the District Court of the City and County of Denver, Hon. John N. Mabry, Judge.
Mr. JOSEPH F. LITTLE, for plaintiff in error.
Mr. DUKE W. DUNBAR, Attorney General, Mr. FRANK E. HICKEY, Deputy, Mr. JAMES D. McKEVITT, Assistant, for defendants in error.
THIS cause originated before the Executive Director of Employment Security on a claim for unemployment compensation filed by one Judith Ann Ferrendelli.
Proceedings before the administrative agency resulted in an award of full benefits without disqualification. Upon review by the district court the award of full benefits was reversed and the court imposed the maximum disqualification permitted by C.R.S. 1953, 82-4-9 (1), as amended. Thus the unemployment compensation payable to claimant was reduced from twenty-six weeks to sixteen weeks.
The issues of law presented by the record in this case are identical with those determined in cause No. 18,930, decided this date, the only difference being that in the instant case the claimant voluntarily quit work to get married and be with her husband who was not a resident of Denver, whereas in cause No. 18,930 the claimant Downare was discharged from employment for misconduct connected therewith.
The arguments made by counsel for the employer in this case are identical with those presented in cause No. 18,930. Our opinion in that case is decisive of the issues in this cause.
The judgment is affirmed.
