Record No. 1390-09-2.

687 S.E.2d 99 (2009)

55 Va. App. 560

VIRGINIA EMPLOYMENT COMMISSION v. Kimberly D. TRENT.

Court of Appeals of Virginia, Richmond.

January 12, 2010.

Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Elizabeth B. Peay, Assistant Attorney General (William C. Mims, Attorney General, on brief), for appellant.

Martin Wegbreit (Central Virginia Legal Aid Society, Richmond, on brief), for appellee.

Present: FRANK, KELSEY and HALEY, JJ.

KELSEY, Judge.

The Virginia Employment Commission denied a claim by Kimberly D. Trent for unemployment benefits under Code § 60.2-618(2) because her employer fired her for misconduct. Trent appealed the VEC decision to the circuit court, which vacated the denial order and reinstated the benefits. Because the circuit court exceeded its authority in doing so, we reverse and enter final judgment affirming the VEC decision.
