Swartz v. Unemployment Appeals Commission
Florida District Courts of Appeal
Swartz v. Unemployment Appeals Commission, 715 So. 2d 963 (1998)
1998 Fla. App. LEXIS 8843; 1998 WL 281325
Gross, Stone, Taylor
Swartz v. Unemployment Appeals Commission
Opinion of the Court
We affirm an order of the commission denying Appellant unemployment compensation. The commission’s order is entitled to a presumption of correctness and should not be reversed where it is supported by substantial, competent evidence. Jennings v. Unemployment Appeals Comm’n, 689 So.2d 1193 (Fla. 4th DCA 1997). The record here supports the referee’s conclusion that Appellant constituted an independent contractor. See Delco Inds., Inc. v. State, Dep’t. of Labor & Employment Sec., Div. of Unemployment Compensation, 519 So.2d 1109 (Fla. 4th DCA 1988) (stating that the principal consideration in determining employment status is the employer’s degree of control).
