In re the Claim of Kemp

Appeal from a decision of the Unemployment Insurance Appeal Board, filed June 2, 2003, which ruled that claimant was disqualified from receiving unemployment insurance benefits because he lost his employment due to misconduct.

The manager who investigated the matter testified that numerous hits were made from petitioner’s office computer to three Web sites, which were considered by management to be pornographic.

Crew III, J.P., Peters, Spain, Carpinello and Mugglin, JJ., concur. Ordered that the decision is affirmed, without costs.
