Summary:
Lost his job as a result of his compulsive gambling disorder, which led him to defraud his employer in order to go and gamble at the Casino. Umpire found that the fact that the claimant may suffer from compulsive behaviour which leads him to gamble does not, in any way, change the fact that the employer had just cause to dismiss him in light of his conduct.
