554 A.2d 1337

YARDVILLE SUPPLY COMPANY, APPELLANT, v. BOARD OF REVIEW, DEPARTMENT OF LABOR, RESPONDENT.

The Supreme Court of New Jersey.

Decided March 23, 1989.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Charles J. Casale, Jr., argued the cause for appellant (Charles J. Casale, attorney; Louis J. DeMille, Jr., on the brief).

Karen L. Hershey, Deputy Attorney General, argued the cause for respondent (Cary Edwards, Attorney General of New Jersey, attorney).


The opinion of the Court was delivered by GARIBALDI, J.

Ernest Sparks, a truck driver, lost his job after his driving privileges were suspended due to his conviction for driving while intoxicated (DWI). He sought and was granted unemployment compensation benefits. We hold that he should have been disqualified from collecting benefits under N.J.S.A. 43:21-5(a) because he "left work voluntarily without good cause attributable to such work."
