Opinion
November 6, 1997
Appeal from the Unemployment Insurance Appeal Board.
The Unemployment Insurance Appeal Board ruled that Labor Law § 600 (7) required a reduction in claimant's benefit rate reflecting his receipt of payments from an employer-funded pension fund. Claimant also was charged with a recoverable overpayment. We affirm. Substantial evidence supports the finding that claimant's pension fund was 100% funded by the employer, thereby triggering the statutory reduction in benefit payments (see, Matter of Chriscaden [Sweeney], 232 A.D.2d 803).
Mercure, J. P., Crew III, Casey, Peters and Spain, JJ., concur.
Ordered that the decision is affirmed, without costs.
