Gregory v. Bernardi

A claimant for unemployment compensation benefits brought this action for judicial review of a determination of the Board of Review of the Department of Labor, which denied his claim. The circuit court of Lake County affirmed the decision of the Board of Review. Because the Board of Review employed the proper standard for determining the case and because the Board's findings are supported by the evidence, we affirm the circuit court's order. In January 1982, plaintiff, Corbit Wayne Gregory, was employed by Campbell Cab in its final assembly department. After missing several days of work during that month, he was fired. His claim for unemployment compensation benefits was denied by a claims adjudicator of the Department of Labor, who determined that Gregory was ineligible for benefits because he was discharged for misconduct. See Ill. Rev. Stat. 1981, ch. 48, par. 432.
