IN THE MATTER OF THE CLAIM OF JEANEEN A. BISHOP, APPELLANT. NEW YORK CITY HUMAN RESOURCES ADMINISTRATION, RESPONDENT. COMMISSIONER OF LABOR, RESPONDENT.

MEMORANDUM AND ORDER

Claimant challenges a determination finding that she was disqualified from receiving unemployment insurance benefits after her employment as an institutional aide for the Human Services Department of the City of New York was terminated. Following an arbitration hearing pursuant to claimant's collective bargaining agreement, it was determined that she had filed a false police report concerning an alleged physical altercation with her supervisor, that claimant used abusive language toward her supervisor and that she lied under oath in connection with the alleged altercation. The Unemployment Insurance Appeal Board appropriately gave collateral estoppel effect to the factual findings of the arbitrator as the record establishes that claimant was given a full and fair opportunity to litigate the issue of her misconduct at the arbitration hearing (see, Matter of Rolle [Nassau County Civil Serv. Commn. — Commissioner of Labor], 258 A.D.2d 871). Given claimant's dishonest conduct, substantial evidence supports the Board's finding that she engaged in disqualifying misconduct (see, Matter of Shuaib [Commissioner of Labor], 268 A.D.2d 744). Claimant's remaining contentions have been reviewed and found to be without merit.

ORDERED that the decision is affirmed, without costs.
