summary
Issue: Sub-Issue 1: Sub-Issue 2: Sub-Issue 3:
claim procedure documents sent by mail presumption
Summary:

Claimant failed to attend an interview saying she had no prior knowledge of the scheduled interview and outlining difficulties she had experienced with mail deliveries. BOR concluded that since claimant had received all other mail, she had received the notice to report. Umpire ruled that in the face of the claimant's denial of receipt of the notice and in the absence of any finding of credibility adverse to the claimant, the BOR had erred in law in giving effect to the presumption of delivery by post. The Court upheld the Umpire's decision stating that the Commission produced no evidence that it had mailed the notice.
