Supreme Court of Delaware

Alcock v. Dpnl and Uiab

July 11, 2017

Summary

The Supreme Court of Delaware affirmed the Superior Court’s judgment denying Paula Alcock unemployment benefits because her testimony established that she was medically unable to work when the claim was adjudicated. The Court also upheld the refusal to remand for consideration of a physician’s later letter, explaining that Alcock could instead seek benefits based on her changed medical status through the appropriate administrative process.
