Summary:
Claimant dismissed for theft of $20,000 from her employer to meet her cocaine needs. Alleged that she was not responsible for her actions since she was continually under the influence of the cocaine and suffered from a drug-induced illness. BOR allowed the claimant's appeal based on the fact that the person had put her life in order and ruled that the employer should have proceeded on a gradual punitive basis. Error according to the Umpire. Nothing in the file to relieve the claimant of responsibility for the repeated crimes that she admitted having committed.
