Wendy Mortimer, Claimant-Appellant v. Board of Review, Respondent-Respondent, and Custom Meats of New Jersey, Inc…

Summary

The Supreme Court of New Jersey affirmed the Board of Review's calculation of unemployment benefits, holding that the statutory language of N.J.S.A. 43:21-19(u) requires the average weekly wage to be based on the most recent employer with at least 20 base weeks, and rejecting the Schatz decision that imported the monetary‑alternative test into that calculation.
