summary
Issue: Sub-Issue 1: Sub-Issue 2: Sub-Issue 3:
board of referees issue not recognized jurisdiction exceeded
Summary:

The Board of Referees in this case did exceed their jurisdiction by eliminating the penalty under s. 38 as assessed by the Commission. Once the Board of Referees confirm that the claimant had made a misrepresentation and made it knowingly, then the Commission had a right to impose a financial penalty which was followed by a notice of violation. The notice of violation automatically follows the penalty. The Board of Referees did not have the power to eliminate the penalty as it did not have the power to do that under s. 38 of the Act.

Issue: Sub-Issue 1: Sub-Issue 2: Sub-Issue 3:
board of referees issue not recognized jurisdiction exceeded
Summary:

In dealing with a case of insufficient hours of insurable employment to qualify for benefits, the issue is whether the Board of Referees had the jurisdiction to decide to extend the qualifying period, a matter that had not been the subject of a decision by the Commission and was not properly before the Board. The Court ruled that both the Board and the Umpire exceeded their jurisdiction in extending the qualifying period. The proper avenue for the Board would have been to refer the matter back to the Commission under section 82 of the EIR for investigation and report.
