Utah Court of Appeals: Employee Who Said He Did Not Want to Remain Employed Because of his Supervisor Quit and was not Layed Off

In Brucks v. DWS, the Utah Court of Appeals agreed with the Department of Workforce Services that an employee, who apparently was attempting to gain some concessions by approaching his field supervisor and saying he did not want to remain employed if he had to work with his immediate supervisor, had quit and was not laid off, precluding him from receiving unemployment benefits.  The employee's claim that the employer agreed to report the claim as a lay-off did not change the outcome.
