Supreme Court of Arkansas

Marilyn Worsham v. Daryl Bassett

April 7, 20162016 Ark. LEXIS 124

Summary

The court affirmed the denial of Worsham's unemployment benefits because her wages from AARP were earned through a federally funded work-training program and therefore were excluded from covered employment. The court also held that the Board properly decided the matter on the existing record and declined to consider Worsham's equal-protection argument because it was not preserved. The court reviewed the statutory interpretation issue de novo.
