Turner v. Cal. State Personnel Bd. CA5
The California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation (Department) employed appellant, Chad Turner, as a correctional sergeant. The Department terminated Turner from his position on the grounds of inexcusable neglect of duty, dishonesty, discourteous treatment of the public, and discrediting his employer. Following a hearing before an administrative law judge (ALJ), respondent, California State Personnel Board (Board), upheld the termination.
Turner argues he was denied due process because the written reasons for dismissal served on Turner did not include the allegations the ALJ relied on to find Turner was dishonest. Turner further contends that substantial evidence does not support the ALJ’s decision and that the Board abused its discretion when it terminated Turner’s employment.
The record does not support Turner’s position. Thus, we will affirm the judgment.
