MATTER OF HIGGINS


49 A.D.2d 980 (1975)

In the Matter of the Claim of Gregory Higgins, Appellant. Louis L. Levine, as Industrial Commissioner, Respondent

Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of the State of New York, Third Department.

October 30, 1975


Claimant resigned because of his conscientious objection to the employer's use of atomic energy and his concern over the use of guns in connection with plant security. Substantial evidence supports the board's finding that these reasons were personal and noncompelling, particularly since claimant was not working in a position where he directly contributed to the production of atomic energy, and was offered an opportunity to continue working in another capacity.
