this is what the issues are:
PRIOR DETERMINATION OF ELIGIBILITY FINAL: If a prior, final determination has been made by the department that the claimant did not voluntarily leave his employment with the employer for a cause not attributable to the employer, or that he was not discharged for misconduct connected with his work, or that the employer is no longer an interested party to proceedings on the claim because of failure to respond within the time allowed to the "Notice to Employer of Claim for Benefits", Form ES-442, issued at the time of the claimant's separation, that determination will remain final and binding for purposes of making a determination in response to the "Notice to Employer of Claim Determination", Form ES-957, on the chargeability of the employer's account for benefits payable to the claimant.
if it is determined by the division that the individual left employment voluntarily without good cause in connection with the employment. No individual shall receive benefits until the division has contacted the former employer and determined whether the individual left the employment voluntarily; provided, however, that a person shall not be denied benefits under this paragraph:
(a) solely on the basis of pregnancy or the termination of pregnancy;
(b) because of domestic abuse evidenced by medical documentation, legal documentation or a sworn statement from the claimant; or
(c) if the person voluntarily left work to relocate because of a spouse, who is in the military service of the United States or the New Mexico national guard, receiving permanent change of station orders, activation orders or unit deployment orders;
(2) if it is determined by the division that the individual has been discharged for misconduct connected with the individual's employment
