Summary:

Claimant was disentitled from benefits based on her a lack of availability. She quit her job to take care of her child who was diagnosed with Hyperactivity Disorder. FCA found that this case was identical to Faltermeir A-0479.94 and based on the principle of that decision " A person who quits a job to care for a sick child will not be disqualified, but will not be eligible to start receiving benefits until he or she is available for work", the court dismissed claimant's appeal.
