Description

The opinion of the court was delivered by The plaintiff sought benefits under the Employment Security Law
found in G.S. 1949, 44-701, et seq., and amendments thereto in
G.S. 1959 Supp. The appeal is from an order of the district court
overruling a motion of the Board of Review of the Employment
Security Division to dismiss plaintiff's petition on the grounds
the district court had no jurisdiction of the subject matter or
of the person of the plaintiff. The plaintiff-appellee, Richard W. Johnston, filed his petition
for judicial review in the district court of Sedgwick County
pursuant to G.S. 1959 Supp., 44-709 (h), in which he named the
Board of Review of the Employment Security Division Department of
Labor, as defendant. The petition alleged that plaintiff applied
for unemployment compensation benefits during the months of
September, October, November, December, 1959, and received the
sum of $640; that on April 22, 1960, he was informed by the Board
that he was found to be ineligible for unemployment compensation
benefits because he was "unavailable for work"; that he duly
perfected an appeal from the ruling of the referee denying
benefits, and on August 10, 1960, the Board ordered that a
hearing be held for the plaintiff's attorney-in-fact in Wichita
and that the transcript be forwarded to it for its review and
decision; that at the hearing on August 19, 1960, evidence was
presented showing that plaintiff had made a reasonable effort to
obtain employment and at all times was available for immediate
employment, and that on November 15, 1960, the Board denied
plaintiff unemployment compensation benefits "because he was
unavailable for work, being enrolled as a student."
