Case No. 97-0252

Opinion filed November 26, 1997

Appeal from the Florida Unemployment Appeals Commission; L.T. Case No. 96-08690.

Joseph J. Mancini of Simmons, Solomon, Dreyer Mancini, Port St. Lucie, for appellant.

William T. Moore, Tallahassee for Appellee-Florida Unemployment Appeals Commission.

PER CURIAM.

We reverse the order of the Unemployment Appeals Commission which reversed the decision of the appeals referee that appellant was entitled to benefits. The referee concluded that appellant had not voluntarily left his work without good cause. The Commission may modify or reverse the decision of a referee if the referee's findings are not supported by competent, substantial evidence.See Campeanu v. Unemployment Appeals Comm'n, 629 So.2d 1015, 1016 (Fla. 4th DCA 1993). The record contains substantial evidence which supports the referee's findings, especially in light of the referee's resolution of all conflicts in the testimony in favor of appellant.

REVERSED AND REMANDED.

POLEN, KLEIN and GROSS, JJ., concur.
