The claimant appeared by telephone, represented by Brian Stutheit, Attorney-at-
Law. The employer appeared in person, represented by Cynthia .. Attorney-at-Law. Colorado law provides that an individual is entitled to unemployment insurance benefits from this employer if that individual separates from employment because of physical or mental inability to perform the work. The hearing officer is persuaded and determines that the cause of the claimant's separation was her inability, because of physical or mental condition, to properly perform her work. The claimant suffered from a variety of serious illnesses including depression. Under these circumstances, an award of benefits is appropriate.
