Issue: Sub-Issue 1: Sub-Issue 2: Sub-Issue 3:
earnings  income  sale of union jurisdiction 

Summary:

In addition to severance pay, claimant received $70,000 as a result of the sale of a union jurisdiction. The Umpire held that this payment arose not from claimant's employment but from management's decision to implement an automated composing room. The Umpire made an error. HARNETT applies.


Issue: Sub-Issue 1: Sub-Issue 2: Sub-Issue 3:
earnings  income  arising out of any employment 

Summary:

HARNETT covers this situation in that the amount received by claimant (for the sale of a union jurisdiction thereby enabling the employer to implement an automated composing room) cannot be said to be "totally unrelated to advantages arising from employment".
