Case Summary:
Robert J. Nenoff, a former salesman for Culligan Soft Water, appeals the ruling of a state review board that denies him unemployment benefits. Nenoff voluntarily left his position. He asserts his employer owed him commission for previous sales and changed the locks to the office doors without giving him a key. A state hearing officer approved Nenoff's original application for unemployment benefits. The company filed an objection.
Decision of lower jurisdiction:
The state's Industrial Commission reversed the hearing officer's decision to grant benefits. Nenoff now appeals.
Outcome:
A split decision. The Idaho Supreme Court remanded the case to the Industrial Commission for additional review. The court ruled the commission failed to resolve key issues during its first hearing of the case.
