Steven C. Levi, Appellant v. State of Alaska, Department of Labor and Workforce Development, Appellee.

Summary

The Alaska Supreme Court affirmed the superior court’s judgment upholding the Department of Labor’s determination that Levi must repay overpaid unemployment benefits, found the Department’s interpretation of the earnings deduction statute reasonable, and held that the Department’s actions were timely and procedurally proper. The Court also rejected Levi’s challenges to the denial of his recusal motion, the denial of a jury trial, and the striking of his discovery motions.
