The South Carolina Court of Appeals reversed the circuit court's orders that had certified a class and ruled in favor of unemployment claimants who challenged DEW's online work search requirement, finding in favor of DEW.
In this declaratory judgment action, the South Carolina Department of Employment and Workforce (DEW) appeals the circuit court's orders granting judgment in favor of named plaintiffs Archie Patterson and Tammie Bollerman (collectively, Claimants), arguing the circuit court erred by (1) certifying a class, and in the alternative, failing to require a claims made process, (2) declaring DEW was required to promulgate regulations implementing its online work search requirement, and (3) concluding Claimants were not required to exhaust their administrative remedies prior to bringing this action. We reverse.
