District Court of Appeal of Florida, Third District.

July 29, 1998.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Terrence A. Smith and Dawn K. Miller, Miami, for appellant.

Geri Atkinson-Hazelton, Tallahassee, for appellee Florida Unemployment Appeals Commission.

Before COPE, FLETCHER and SHEVIN, JJ.

Affirmed.

FLETCHER and SHEVIN, JJ., concur.

COPE, Judge, dissenting.

Unemployment Appeals Comm'n,
