SUMMARY OPINION
LESLIE, Judge.
FACTS
Respondent Donald Schultz was employed by relator Machovec Food Market as a driver until he was allegedly terminated from his employment on January 17, 1984. Relator alleges respondent quit. The Commissioner of Economic Security determined that the discharge was involun tary and for reasons other than misconduct. Relator requests a remand of the case to the appeal tribunal for taking of further evidence.
DECISION
Substantial evidence in the record of the hearing before the department referee supports the Commissioner's determination. White v. Metropolitan Medical Center, 332 N.W.2d 25, 27 (Minn.1983). The Commissioner did not err by refusing to remand the matter for additional testimony solely because relator was not represented by counsel and did not present all the testimony it now feels would be helpful.
Affirmed.
