Matter of Eveland

Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York, Third Department
Apr 13, 2000
271 A.D.2d 786 (N.Y. App. Div. 2000)

Opinion

April 13, 2000.

Appeal from a decision of the Unemployment Insurance Appeal Board, filed December 16, 1998, which, upon reconsideration, ruled that claimant was disqualified from receiving unemployment insurance benefits because she voluntarily left her employment without good cause.

Sandra L. Eveland, Rochester, appellant in person.

Eliot Spitzer, Attorney-General (Bessie Bazile of counsel), New York City, for respondent.

Before: MERCURE, J.P., CREW III, PETERS, SPAIN and CARPINELLO, JJ.


MEMORANDUM AND ORDER

We conclude that substantial evidence supports the decision of the Unemployment Insurance Appeal Board that claimant voluntarily left her employment without good cause after having a verbal argument with a co-worker, who was the nephew of the owner of the company. The record reveals that claimant was subsequently informed that this particular employee was going to be assuming more responsibilities in her plant and she thereafter resigned stating that she did not want to work under his supervision. It is well established that dissatisfaction with one's supervisor or a conflict with a co-worker does not constitute good cause for leaving one's employment (see, Matter of Saglimbeni [Commissioner of Labor], 264 A.D.2d 993; Matter of Odock [Independent Living — Commissioner of Labor], 254 A.D.2d 551). We have considered claimant's remaining arguments and conclude that they lack merit.

ORDERED that the decision is affirmed, without costs.
