BRANELL HARRIS v. VIRGINIA EMPLOYMENT COMMISSION AND RESTON HOSPITAL CENTER LLC (2011)

Court of Appeals of Virginia.

BRANELL HARRIS v. VIRGINIA EMPLOYMENT COMMISSION AND RESTON HOSPITAL CENTER, LLC

Record No. 2005-10-4

Decided: March 15, 2011

Present: Judges Elder, Beales and Senior Judge Annunziata

(Annette K. Rubin, on brief), for appellant. (Kenneth T. Cuccinelli, II, Attorney General; Elizabeth B. Peay, Assistant Attorney General-I, on brief), for appellee Virginia Employment Commission. No brief for appellee Reston Hospital Center, LLC.

Robert J. Smith, Judge

Branell Harris appeals the decision by the circuit court affirming a decision by the Virginia Employment Commission (commission) that disqualified her for unemployment compensation due to misconduct when she reported to work while impaired by drugs or alcohol. We have reviewed the record, the circuit court's order, and the commission's opinion and find that this appeal is without merit. Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons stated by the commission in its final opinion, see Harris v. Reston Hosp. Ctr., LLC, Comm'n Decision 91788-C (May 13, 2010), as affirmed by the circuit court, see Harris v. Virginia Emp't Comm'n, Case No. CL2010-8390 (Sept. 3, 2010). We dispense with oral argument and summarily affirm because the facts and legal contentions are

adequately presented in the materials before this Court and argument would not aid the decisional process. See Code § 17.1-403; Rule 5A:27.

Affirmed.
