WI Court of Appeals – District IV
Case Name: Sharon Haynes v. Labor Industry Commission, Department of Workforce Development, et al.
Case No.: 2018AP1581
Officials: Blanchard, Kloppenburg and Nashold, JJ.
Focus: ALJ Error – Discrimination Claim
Sharon Haynes appeals pro se from a circuit court order that upheld the Labor and Industry Review Commission’s decision rejecting Haynes’s discrimination claim against Blain’s Farm & Fleet. Haynes argues (1) that the Commission made an erroneous finding of fact, (2) that the Commission and administrative law judge (ALJ) unfairly declined to consider new evidence, and (3) that the commissioners should have recused themselves. We reject these arguments and affirm.
