This is an appeal from a self-represented litigant concerning the denial of unemployment benefits by the Idaho Department of Labor.

The Department denied Nelson’s request for benefits, concluding that she quit her job without good cause because “reasonable alternatives were not 1 exhausted prior to quitting.” The Department also informed Nelson that if she disagreed with the determination, she could fax, hand deliver, or mail a protest within 14 days. The notice sent by the Department designated March 6, 2019 as the “last day to protest.” For protests1 sent by U.S.
