Summary: For some 25 years, claimant gainfully employed while being the owner of two successful businesses. He claims he is spending only 4 to 6 hours a week into the businesses. Taking into consideration the claimant's total investment in his operations as well as the total of his assets and liabilities, the Commission was of the view that the nature and the magnitude of both businesses would require much more attention than the claimant says he gives to it. Claimant considered not unemployed; decision upheld by the BOR. Decision reversed by the Umpire who held that the ownership of any business is not determinative of self-employment. Decision appealed to the FCA. See FCA A-0707.94. |
