Description
This is a suit to set aside unemployment benefits. Justine B. Mercer was employed by Crossroads Travel Agency as a travel agent, although she had no previous experience in this type of work. During her period of employment Mercer made a number of errors; she booked tickets incorrectly and prepared them with the wrong names and destinations. She occasionally gave out airline schedules before those schedules became effective, and because of this Crossroads eventually lost a large commercial account. She was never able to the job to her employer's satisfaction and was discharged. She sought unemployment compensation, and Crossroads objected. The Texas Employment Commission determined that Mercer's actions did not constitute mismanagement; awarded her unemployment benefits; and Crossroads sued to set aside TEC's award. The case was tried on stipulated facts. The trial court held that TEC had applied on improper legal standard of misconduct and that there was insufficient evidence to support the award. The court of appeals affirmed the judgment of the trial court. 695 S.W.2d 134.
