Summary:
Claimant worked as an accountant for her husband and was paid annually. While on maternity leave, she continued to provide accounting services but stated that she only worked 2½ hours per week and that no person was hired to take over her duties. The BOR and the Umpire determined that she was employed under an oral contract of services for her husband and that the earnings had to be allocated to the period in which the services were performed, even during the maternity leave. The Court held that it was essentially a question of credibility and dismissed the claimant's application.
