UNEMPLOYMENT INSURANCE - HEARING AND APPEAL


This is what happens after I submitted the additional documentation. Remember, this is from the Appeals Board Rules:

"463.1 (f)(3) ................ An attorney-at-law, or representative, must mail a copy of the statement, document or brief to each of the other parties, and their attorneys and representatives, and certify to the board that this has been done. Each party may submit such statement, document or brief only once. Subsequent statements, documents or briefs will be returned to the party.

.......

(5) If another party submits statements, documents or briefs on this appeal, you will receive copies and will have 12 days to reply in writing. The 12 days to reply is measured from the date when the copies were mailed to you. A party may submit a reply at only one time. Subsequent replies will be returned to the party."

This is also on the back of the Notice of Receipt of Appeal (earlier blog). But I submitted the additional documentation based upon the following rule:

"Section 463.2 Conduct of appeal.

(a) The board shall not be bound by common law or statutory rules of evidence or by technical or formal rules of procedure but may conduct the appeal and any hearing thereon in such order and manner and with such methods of proof and interrogation as it deems best suited to ascertain the substantial rights of the parties."

You will also recall that when I submitted my original statement (earlier blog), I had the following language:

"I also request that, if the Appeals Board deems the attached insufficient, I be given additional time to submit additional documentation regarding the physical condition and mental capacity of XXXXXXXXXXXXX and other documentation establishing XXXXXX reasonable excuse for the delay in timely filing a request for hearing."

But it appeared I only got "one bite at the apple"
