UNEMPLOYMENT INSURANCE PROGRAM LETTER No. 1145
Procedures for Implementation of the Java Decision
Direct all questions to the appropriate Regional Office.
At a nationwide series of meetings with representatives of all State agencies in August 1971, Manpower Administration staff discussed draft procedural guides which were proposed for implementation of the requirements of the Supreme Court's decision in the Java case.
Under separate cover, we are sending to each State agency five copies of the procedures, revised in the light of the August discussions.
UIPL No. 1126 advised that States should issue as quickly as possible, but not later than September 1, 1971, predetermination procedures to provide for the necessary notice and hearing opportunity to claimants and employers. Later the States were informed through the Regional Manpower Administrators that any State that must have the Java procedures prepared by the Manpower Administration before it could implement changes in its predetermination procedures would have until two weeks after receipt of the Java procedures to effectuate the necessary changes in its procedures. Accordingly, States that have not revised their procedures should do so as soon as possible, with an implementation date not later than two weeks after receipt of the Java procedures.
