Summary:
Umpire stated that the employer has the right to be heard before the Board of Referees and the Board should not have refused her the right to communicate with them by telephone at the hearing. The Board in this case denied the employer a fair hearing by failing to allow her to give evidence before the Board, especially when they had been specifically requested to do so. The judge concluded that the Board's decision in this case was a denial of natural justice.
