The decision

CSC published this decision as a scanned image. The text below was recognized by OCR, read twice and checked against the meeting minutes, but OCR can misread a word. The official document is the record.

BackgroundThe appeal of Bruce Greenwood, Electrical Mechanic, Department of Transportation, 15 working day suspension, on charges, was heard by Administrative Law Judge Judith Lieberman (ALJ), who rendered her initial decision on November 21, 2022. No exceptions were filed.

AnalysisHaving considered the record and the ALJ’s initial decision, and having made an independent evaluation of the record, the Civil Service Commission, at its meeting of December 21, 2022, accepted and adopted the Findings of Fact and Conclusion as contained in the attached ALJ’s initial decision.

ORDER

The Civil Service Commission finds that the action of the appointing authority in suspending the appellant was justified. The Commission therefore affirms that action and dismisses the appeal of Bruce Greenwood.

ClosingThis is the final administrative determination in this matter. Any further review should be pursued in a judicial forum.
