Calhoun v. WACKENHUT SERVICES
District of Columbia Court of Appeals
Decided July 20, 2006No. 05-AA-481PublishedCited by 7 opinions
1Opinion of the Court
FISHER, Associate Judge:
Appellant’s claim for unemployment benefits was denied, but the merits of that decision are not before us. When he sought review, the Office of Administrative Hearings (“OAH”) concluded that appellant’s request for a hearing had not been timely filed and dismissed his administrative appeal for lack of jurisdiction. See D.C.Code § 51-lll(b) (2001) (establishing ten-day time limit for administrative appeal from initial determination awarding or denying unemployment benefits). We reverse and remand for consideration of the merits.
