Question juridique clé
Whether the claimant's unemployment was self-inflicted under unemployment insurance law
Solution extraite
No. Given substantial wage arrears and the employer's inability to pay, the claimant's work stoppage was not culpable self-inflicted unemployment.
Motifs extraits
The claimant was entitled to refuse work while wages were overdue, had repeatedly demanded payment, and could not realistically be expected to tolerate the employer's financial distress. Her strained conduct did not amount to intentional or eventual-intentional behavior causing the dismissal.
