In Re Allen

On May 11, 1970, the appellant was discharged from his job because of absenteeism. In opening his claim with the Employment Security Department on May 14, 1970, he stated that he was separated from his employment due to "lack of work -- layoff." On June 17, 1970, the Employment Security Department mailed to the appellant a determination notice advising him that because he was discharged for misconduct, he was disqualified for benefits for the week of May 10, 1970, and for a period not to exceed 10 weeks beyond the week in which he was discharged. He was further advised that because of his misrepresentation of fact in his application, benefits were denied for the calendar week ending May 30, 1970, and an additional period of 26 weeks thereafter, commencing with the first week for which he completed a claim for waiting period or benefits, following the delivery or mailing date of the determination notice.
