Outcome
The appellate court reversed the trial court's decision and remanded the case, finding that the employer failed to meet its burden of proving the employee voluntarily quit without good cause. The court determined the employer's no-call, no-show policy was ambiguous and that the employee's single notification of illness-related absences satisfied reasonable compliance.
