Patsy v. Commonwealth
Opinion of the Court
Opinion by
This is an appeal from an order of the Unemployment Compensation Board of Review (Board) denying compensation to Joseph J. Patsy (Patsy).
Patsy brings this appeal in propria persona from a decision made by a referee and affirmed by the Board that he is ineligible to receive compensation under Section 402(b) (1) of the Unemployment Compensation Law, Act of December 5, 1936, Second Ex.

Since the claim for compensation following Ms termination from Cumberland is the only one before us, this is the only claim we may properly decide.
Order
Now, this 25th day of January, 1974, the appeal of Joseph J. Patsy is hereby dismissed.
