Matter of Coulote

Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York, Third Department
Jan 3, 1991
169 A.D.2d 861 (N.Y. App. Div. 1991)

Opinion

January 3, 1991

Appeal from the Unemployment Insurance Appeal Board.


Even if the merits of this case are properly before us, the decision that claimant voluntarily left his employment without good cause is supported by substantial evidence and must be upheld (see, Matter of Steed [Roberts], 115 A.D.2d 166, 167). Claimant admitted that there were no threats, profanity or incidents of physical abuse, and while he alleged work-related psychological problems, he had no medical advice to leave the job and could have continued had he not resigned. Furthermore, while he also stated that he left because of conflicts with co-workers, that is not a compelling reason to leave employment (see, Matter of Hogan [Schenectady Discount Corp. — Levine], 50 A.D.2d 650).

Decision affirmed, without costs. Mahoney, P.J., Casey, Weiss, Mercure and Harvey, JJ., concur.
