Description
PER CURIAM: Plaintiff brings this action, seeking review of a decision of the commission which held that plaintiff's appeal from a decision of the department was untimely. Plaintiff filed for and received weekly unemployment compensation from December 10, 1976, through October 5, 1977. Subsequently, the department received information that plaintiff had withheld material information to receive benefits to which he was not entitled. 1 By letter, the department requested an explanation and indicated that if plaintiff failed to respond within ten days, a hearing representative would determine the case based upon the information it had. Plaintiff did not respond and, in a decision dated May 9, 1978, the department assessed an overpayment of $1,222 against plaintiff, finding that plaintiff had knowingly withheld employment information. The decision was mailed to plaintiff's last known address as required by U.C.A., 1953, § 35-4-6(c). The department thereupon garnished plaintiff's Utah income tax refund checks for the years 1978 and 1979 and applied these to the overpayment. Incidental to the garnishments, letters were sent to the plaintiff's then current address (obtained from the face of the refund checks), explaining the department's actions and informing plaintiff of the overpayment balance owing.
