How to file civil case against texas workforce commissions appeal committee?

Don't forget the fact that he accepted the TWC employee's guidance that "you don't need to appear." There are so many moving parts to this story, a lack of understanding of what went wrong, and failure to communicate that one important detail that can make all the difference in the world.

You're also pretty deep into the process. The further you go, the harder it becomes to change the outcome. There's a lot of inertia given to the most recent decision.

Chyvan, I have a quick question for you because you seem to be so knowledgeable of the process. My husband has an unemployment case that we have been fighting for 4 months, now. We have won our case throughout every "level" of appeals. Unemployment granted his benefits after he submitted his claim, his previous employer appealed that decision which went to the Tribunal, who ultimately ruled in our favor, they then appealed to the commission who have recently ruled in our favor, as well. I am 100% positive that the previous employer will motion for a rehearing, which I hope will be declined, as this stress is driving me insane. However, if the employer still refuses to give in and appeals the case to the civil court, is the court case my husband vs. the employer, or is it the employer vs. texas workforce commission?

Additional info: We have only collected one unemployment check, as my husband was only unemployed for 2 weeks, so we aren't currently collecting money, we are just fighting to keep the one check he has already collected three months ago. Also, the previous employer is a money hungry savage that will stop at no end to save a dollar, so I do believe they will take it to civil court. I'm just wondering is this an issue I should continue to worry about, tirelessly, or are all matters concerning my husband, now out of the picture?

It's the employer vs TWC AND your husband

I don't know TWC rules, but in my state if a BUSINESS wants to take a UI matter to court, they must be represented by an attorney. It might not be cost effective for them to go any further. The last of the easy appeals is over. The standard of review is to uphold the original decision unless it's was just so wrong, and any issue on appeal must have been raised with TWC before court or the issue is waived. It's really tough to get a decision overturned by going to court.
