SECTION 1. BE IT ENACTED BY THE GENERAL ASSEMBLY OF
MARYLAND, That Section 7(e) of Article 95A - Unemployment

Article 95A — Unemployment Insurance Law
7.
(e) The claimant or any other party entitled to
notice of a determination as herein provided, may file an
appeal from such determination with the Board of Appeals
within [seven] [[30]] 15 days after the date of mailing
of the notice to his last known address or if such notice
is not mailed, within [seven] [[30]] 15 days after the
date of delivery of such notice.
Unless the appeal is withdrawn or is removed to the
Board of Appeals, a referee designated by the Board of
Appeals, after affording the parties reasonable
opportunity for a fair hearing, shall make findings and
conclusions and on the basis thereof affirm, modify, or
reverse such determination; provided, however, that
whenever an appeal involves a question as to whether
services were performed by claimant in employment or for
an employer, the referee shall give special notice of
such issue and of the pendency of the appeal to the
employing unit and to the Executive Director, both of
whom shall thenceforth be parties to the proceeding and
be afforded a reasonable opportunity to adduce evidence
bearing on such question.
The parties shall be promptly notified of the
referee's decision and shall be furnished with a copy of
the decision and the findings and conclusions in support
