Jones v. City of Loma Linda CA4/2
Plaintiff and appellant Steve Jones (Jones) was employed by defendant and respondent City of Loma Linda (the City) as a firefighter. The City terminated Jones’s employment. In an administrative appeal, the City Council affirmed the termination of Jones’s employment. Jones petitioned the trial court for an administrative writ of mandate directing the City to reinstate his employment. (Code Civ. Proc., § 1094.5.) The trial court denied Jones’s writ petition.
Jones contends the trial court erred by denying his petition. First, Jones asserts the Loma Linda City Council (City Council) applied an incorrect standard of review. Second, Jones contends the findings against him are not supported by substantial evidence. Third, Jones asserts the record does not support selecting termination as the form of discipline. We reverse the judgment with directions.
