Supreme Court of Delaware

Wyatte v. Uiab

May 18, 2016

Summary

The Supreme Court of Delaware affirmed the Superior Court's judgment upholding the denial of John Wyatte Jr.'s unemployment-benefit appeal as untimely. The court held that the notice was properly mailed to Wyatte's last known address, that no administrative error excused the late filing, and that the UIAB did not abuse its discretion by declining further review. The court also applied its limited substantial-evidence and legal-error review of UIAB decisions.
