Williams v. Director, Employment Security Department & Conagra

Sam Bird, Judge.

In this unbriefed employment security case, Allean Williams appeals the Board of Review’s denial of her claim for unemployment benefits. The Board based its decision upon a finding that Williams voluntarily and without good cause connected with the work, left last work due to a compelling personal emergency, but without making reasonable efforts to preserve her job rights.
