Acosta v. Gold Coast Beverage Distributors Inc.
Citations: 711 So. 2d 1389; 1998 Fla. App. LEXIS 7890; 1998 WL 347564Docket: No. 97-2284
Court: District Court of Appeal of Florida; July 1, 1998; Florida; State Appellate Court
Carlos A. Acosta appeals a decision by the Unemployment Appeals Commission that overturned an appeals referee's award of unemployment compensation benefits. The court reverses the Commission's decision, determining that Acosta's actions constituted an isolated incident of poor judgment rather than "misconduct" as defined in section 443.036(26) of the Florida Statutes (1995). The ruling references the case of Bulkan v. Florida Unemployment Comm’n, 648 So.2d 846 (Fla. 4th DCA 1995) to support this conclusion.
