Employment — unemployment compensation — voluntary termination

Johnny Lacy appeals an order confirming a decision of the Labor and Industry Review Commission denying unemployment compensation. LIRC concluded Lacy voluntarily terminated his employment with All American Lumber Inc., by abandoning his job without good cause when he checked himself out of an inpatient treatment program knowing that All American required completion of the program as a prerequisite to returning to work. Lacy argues he was either discharged or quit with good cause attributable to the employer. Lacy also contends he was denied due process. We reject Lacy’s arguments and affirm. This opinion will not be published.
