IN THE MATTER OF

FRANCINE BRELAND

____________________________________

 

Submitted October 19, 2005 - Decided

Before Judges Parker and Sapp-Peterson.

On appeal from the Board of Review, Department of Labor, 47,659.

Francine Breland, appellant pro se.

Peter C. Harvey, Attorney General, attorney for respondent Board of Review, Department of Labor (Patrick DeAlmeida, Assistant Attorney General, of counsel; Jennifer B. Pitre, Deputy Attorney General, on the brief).

PER CURIAM

Petitioner, Francine Breland, appeals from the decision of the Board of Review affirming the decision of the Appeals Tribunal denying unemployment benefits to her. The Tribunal issued a written opinion in which it found that petitioner failed to meet any of the nine applicable thresholds necessary to establish entitlement to benefits and denied her claim. See N.J.S.A. 43:21-4(e); N.J.S.A. 43:21-19(c) and (t) Petitioner appealed the decision of the Tribunal to the Board of Review. The Board of Review adopted the Tribunal's findings of fact and conclusions of law, and affirmed the Tribunal's decision. This appeal followed.

 
After carefully reviewing the record in light of the written arguments advanced by the parties, we conclude that the issues presented by plaintiff are without sufficient merit to warrant extensive discussion in this opinion, R. 2:11-3(e)(1)(D), and we affirm substantially for the reasons expressed in the November 17, 2004, decision of the Tribunal and adopted by the Board of Review in its February 3, 2005, decision. The findings and conclusions of the Tribunal are supported by substantial, credible evidence in the record. Rova Farms Resort, Inc. v. Investors Ins. Co., 65 N.J. 474, 483-84 (1974); R. 2:11-3(e)(1)(D).

Affirmed.
