Questione giuridica chiave
Whether the unexcused absence from the counseling meeting justified a suspension in entitlement to unemployment benefits.
Decisione estratta
Yes. It was established with overriding probability that the claimant knew of the 2017-07-26 appointment and failed to attend without excuse.
Motivazione estratta
The counseling protocol and the personal advisor's confirmation showed the appointment had been communicated at the previous meeting. The claimant's contrary account was not credible.
