Syllabus

Common pleas court erred by affirming Unemployment Compensation Review Commission decision that applied the wrong statutory standard in determining whether one employer was the successor in interest to another employer. The Commission determined the acquiring employer acquired substantially all of the business of the transferring employer however, because there was no application for voluntary successorship the appropriate statutory standard was whether the acquiring employer acquired all of the trade or business of the transferring employer. Therefore, the Commission's decision was not in accordance with law.
