Outcome
The Kentucky Supreme Court reversed the Court of Appeals and upheld the validity of KRS 341.470(3), which permits non-attorney employees to represent corporations at unemployment insurance hearings. The court found the plaintiff lacked standing to challenge the statute because his unemployment benefits were denied for misrepresentation on his application, not due to any prejudice from the non-attorney representation.
