 Goodman et al.
- Teachers, etc., cannot collect unemployment during school vacations. These school office workers went on strike during the school term. Nevertheless, they cannot collect unemployment because their strike stretched into summer vacation.
- David Gruber -- Kent Greene
- The issue is what kind of employment qualifies one for Unemployment, versus what kind of employment disqualifies one from Unemployment.
- David Killian
- An engineering student signed up for a course which included a hands-on semester working at General Motors. When the semester was over, of course he went back to school. But then he applied for Unemployment. The court says no.
- Shirley Klein
- After paying her over $4,000 in Unemployment, now the state wants her to pay it back! Because her employer was a religious school, they say she can't collect. She says this violates the equal protection clause. This court says employees at schools like this can't collect.
- Patricia Schwartfigure
- The state paid her over $2,000 in Unemployment, and then decided she didn't deserve it. Next time she applied for benefits, they started deducting what they figured they had paid her by mistake. This court says they can't do that.
- Sinker v. Sweeney
- This lawyer was convicted of felony and disbarred, and so his firm fired him. Now he says that since his felony was not committed on the job, he should not be disqualified from Unemployment. This court says he doesn't collect.
