Opinion of the Court

SCOTT, Justice.

The representative of the Commissioner of the State of Minnesota Department of Economic Security found that the employee “was discharged for reasons amounting to misconduct under the Minnesota Employment Service Law.” He was then disqualified as a recipient of unemployment compensation benefits.

We reverse that determination, based upon our decision in Windsperger v. Broadway Liquor Outlet, 346 N.W.2d 142, filed contemporaneously with this decision. The reasoning of that case precludes the denial of said benefits to this employee.

Reversed.
