Court of Appeals of Mississippi

Decided November 20, 2018No. 2017-CC-01515-COAPublished

1Opinion of the Court

IRVING, P.J., FOR THE COURT:

¶ 1. The Mississippi Department of Employment Security (MDES) affirmed the denial of unemployment benefits following Shelli Bounds's termination from Sal-Liz Inc. Bounds appealed to the Circuit Court of Rankin County, which affirmed MDES's decision. Bounds appeals again, asserting the following issues: (1) whether Sal-Liz proved that she exhibited misconduct by substantial clear and convincing evidence; and (2) whether her alleged behavior constitutes insubordination that rises to the level of misconduct. We find no error; therefore, we affirm.
