1Opinion of the Court

MILLER, Chief Justice:

Wyoming Cablevision, Inc. (the employer), the defendant below, appeals a final order of the Circuit Court of Wyoming County, dated September 25, 1989. The employer asserts that there was insufficient evidence presented at trial to find that it had discharged Timothy Powell, one of its employees, in violation of W.Va.Code, 23-5A-1 (1978). 1 The employer further contends that the trial court erred in refusing to offset Mr. Powell’s unemployment compensation benefits against the jury verdict. We disagree, and, accordingly, we affirm the judgment of the lower court.
