Court Reviews a TN Labor Department Board of Review Denial of Unemployment Compensation Benefits

TOM AGNEW v. MERITAN, ET AL. (Tenn. Ct. App. November 29, 2010)

In this matter, the plaintiff appeals the decision of the Board of Review of the Tennessee Department of Labor and Workforce Development that he is disqualified from receiving unemployment compensation benefits pursuant to Tenn. Code Ann. section 50-7-301, as a result of his failure to establish that he had covered wages not provided by an unemployment workrelief program financed by a federal agency under Tenn. Code Ann. section 50-7-207(c)(5)(G). The trial court upheld the decision of the Board of Review. We affirm.
