Opinion

Rosemarie Stotts appeals the district courts order affirming an Employment Appeal Board (EAB) ruling denying unemployment compensation benefits. Stotts argues substantial evidence does not support the EABs conclusion that she is disqualified from unemployment benefits because of misconduct. See Iowa Admin. Code r. 871–24.21(1)(a) (defining “misconduct” to include “conduct evincing ․ an intentional and substantial disregard of the employers interests or of the employees duties and obligations to the employer”). Like the district court, we conclude substantial evidence exists to support the EABs decision. We affirm without further opinion. Iowa Ct. R. 21.26(1)(b) (providing memorandum opinions may be appropriate when “[t]he issue is whether the evidence is sufficient to support ․ an administrative agencys finding, and the evidence is sufficient”).

AFFIRMED.

MAY, Presiding Judge.
