Opinion

Case No. 96-02580

Opinion filed June 18, 1997. Rehearing Denied July 31, 1997.

Appeal from the Florida Unemployment Appeals Commission.

Steve A. Hitov of Florida Rural Legal Services, Lakeland, for Appellant.

Mary Elizabeth Harlan of Office of the County Attorney, Bartow, for Appellee Board of County Commissioners.

No appearance for Appellee UAC.


Vivian A. Laidler appeals the denial of her claim for unemployment compensation benefits. The appeals referee found that Laidler voluntarily left her employment without good cause attributable to the employer. See § 443.101, Fla. Stat. (1995). The Unemployment Appeals Commission affirmed the appeals referee's decision. On appeal to this court, the Commission's order is entitled to a presumption of correctness. See Kelle v. D.H. Holmes Co., Ltd., 658 So.2d 1161 (Fla. 2d DCA 1995).

Although there was evidence to support Laidler's claim, there was also competent, substantial evidence to support the appeals referee's decision. Therefore, we affirm the determination that Laidler is not eligible for unemployment compensation benefits.

Affirmed.

SCHOONOVER, A.C.J., and BLUE and FULMER, JJ., Concur.
