Claimant, a sales associate, asked that he be allowed to take Mother's Day 2007 off from work to spend time with his ailing mother-in-law and other family members. When that request ultimately was denied, claimant decided to resign rather than report to work as scheduled. It is well settled that resigning in anticipation of a future discharge does not constitute good cause for leaving one's employment ( see Matter of Croughter [Commissioner of Labor], 50 AD3d 1360; Matter of Paino [Commissioner of Labor], 27 AD3d 820, 821; Matter of-Hobson-Williams [Commissioner of Labor], 10 AD3d 749, 750). To the extent that claimant contends that he was forced to resign, this presented a credibility issue for the Board to resolve ( see Matter of Croughter [Commissioner of Labor], supra). Under these circumstances, we find no reason to disturb the Board's decision.
Ordered that the decision is affirmed, without costs.
