Disciplinary Punishment - Disparate Treatment

     In a disparate disciplinary punishment case, "the standard for comparing conduct requires a reasonably close resemblance of the facts and circumstances of plaintiff's and comparator's cases, rather than a showing that both cases are identical." Ruiz v. County of Rockland, #09-0759-cv, 2010 U.S. App. Lexis 13058 (2nd Cir.).
     Seattle's Public Safety Civil Service Commission overturns the termination of a police officer for untruthfulness; penalty reduced to a 30-day disciplinary suspension." There is evidence that employees in past cases involving dishonesty either received no suspension of duties or only temporary suspension of duties. ... To date, no other employee has been terminated based on dishonesty." Werner v. Seattle Police Dept., #09-006 (Seattle PSCSC 2010).
     Appellate court rejects a disciplinary bias claim. The appellant, a terminated black officer, "cited no examples of comparable employees who were similarly situated" that were treated more favorably. Greene v. City of Cincinnati, #C-070830, 2008 Ohio App. Lexis 4121 (1st Dist.).
     Fifth Circuit rejects a race discrimination and retaliation lawsuit brought by a terminated detention officer that was fired for slashing his supervisor's car tires following a low performance evaluation. He failed to allege a prima facie case of disparate treatment. Jackson v. Dallas County, #07-10818, 2008 U.S. App. Lexis 16417 (Unpub. 5th Cir.).
     Arbitrator finds that management lacked just cause to terminate an off-duty police officer for frequenting a bar that is a known hangout for gangs, where other officers also visited the premises without suffering disciplinary action. City of El Paso and Individual Grievant, AAA Case #70-390-00665-04, 124 LA (BNA) 1583 (Jennings, 2008).
     In a disparate discipline action, a higher-ranking officer may be treated more harshly. "It cannot be said that conduct that might be tolerated or treated with progressive discipline at lower ranks must be similarly accepted from the Chief's immediate advisors, who are held to a higher level of professionalism and who are expected to set the standard of conduct for the department." Rioux v. City of Atlanta, #07-11657, 2008 U.S. App. Lexis 5683 (11th Cir.).
     Former police recruit was unable to show that his removal from a preservice training program for assaulting another recruit was pretextual, despite his claim that three recruits attacked him first, but were not punished. Management articulated nondiscriminatory reasons for disbelieving the plaintiff. Turner v. Federal Law Enforcement Training Center, #04c-0606, 2007 U.S. Dist. Lexis 91558, 102 FEP Cases (BNA) 856 (D.D.C.).

     Arbitrator reinstates a civilian jail worker that was fired for failing to report his arrest at a retail store; another worker received only a 15-day suspension for not reporting two, so that a 10-day suspension is appropriate here. Cook County/Sheriff and SEIU L-73, 123 LA (BNA) 1674 (Wolff, 2007).
     Appellate court sustains the termination of a Chicago police officer that worked as part-time as a security guard for a school district while on medical leave. "... the fact that different individuals have been disciplined differently is not a basis for concluding that an agency's disciplinary decision is unreasonable; such conclusions are appropriate when individuals receive different discipline in a single, identical, "completely related" case." Siwek v. Police Bd. of Chicago, #1-05-3273, 2007 Ill. App. Lexis 729 (1st Dist.).
     Federal appeals court affirms termination of a police officer that watched a fellow officer lose control of his patrol car, spin, and jump a curb; she neither stopped to check on the officer nor sought assistance. Although a male officer drove by the scene without realizing that a collision had occurred was not disciplined, the appellant was fired because she failed to render aid to a fellow officer. Sullivan v. Vil. of McFarland, #06-3231, 2007 U.S. App. Lexis 10961 (Unpub. 7th Cir., 2007), affirming 457 F.Supp.2d 909 (W.D. Wis.).
     Eleventh Circuit rejects the claims of a terminated, probationary, port authority communications officer that failed to appear for work during a hurricane alert and took her daughter to another city. All probationary employees that did not report for work were fired, and permanent employees were suspended or demoted. The plaintiff failed to prove that other employees were treated more favorably because of their race. Catanzaro v. Lyons, #06-16225, 2007 U.S. App. Lexis 9365 (11th Cir.).
     Appellate court affirms the termination of a federal employee for misuse of a vehicle and falsification of official travel documents.

Dept. of Commerce, #06-3284, 2007 U.S. App. Lexis 10648 (Unpub. Fed. Cir.).
     California appellate court rejects a disparate treatment argument raised by a demoted jail supervisor. An appellant "may not rely on errors by fellow employees to excuse her own" and absent a showing of racial or sex discrimination, "there is no requirement that charges similar in nature must result in identical penalties." Kolender v. San Diego County Civil Serv. Cmsn., #D048919, 2007 Cal. App. Lexis 501 (4th Dist.).

Queen City L-69 FOP (Caton), #C-050143,164 Ohio App.3d 408, 2005 Ohio 6225, 842 N.E.2d 588, 2005 Ohio App. Lexis 5601 (App. 1st Dist.); appeal denied, 2006 Ohio 1703, 2006 Ohio Lexis 873 (Ohio 2006). [2006 FP Sep]

     Arbitrator sustains the termination of a firefighter who had been drinking alcohol at home during a hurricane alert, and was unable to report for callback duty.

City of Lauderhill and Metro Broward Prof. Firefighters, 121 LA (BNA) 1035, AAA Case #32-390-00887-04 (Duda, 2005). [2006 FP Mar]
     Arbitrator upholds the firing of an officer for repeatedly using disrespectful and intemperate language to a superior. To prove disparate punishment, it is not enough that others received a lesser penalty for insubordination, unless there is evidence of the "degree of fault, mitigating circumstances, length of service, and work record" of other employees. City of Alton and PBPA #14, 121 LA (BNA) 1288, FMCS Case 05/53832 (Pratte, 2005). [2006 FP Mar]

City of Springfield Police Dept., #04-3410, 424 F.3d 614, 96 FEP Cases (BNA) 988, 2005 U.S. App. Lexis 20066 (7th Cir. 2005). [2006 FP Feb]

     Two white California police officers are awarded over $2.4 million because the discipline they received, after a widely-seen videotape of their arrest of a black teenager, was found discriminatory. A black officer involved in the incident had received lesser punishment. Morse v. Inglewood, L.A. Co. Super. Ct., #BC290309, 43 (2095) G.E.R.R. (BNA) 164 (Verdict Jan. 18, 2005). [2005 FP Apr.]

App. 2005). {N/R}

[2005 FP Mar]
     Police officer who was fired for engaging in a scheme to obtain illegal access to satellite television, failed to prove discriminatory action. Although other officers were involved in the scheme, his conduct was the most severe and his allegations of disparate discipline did not establish a pretextual termination because he is Hispanic. Salguero v. City of Clovis, #03-2120, 366 F.3d 1168, 2004 U.S. App. Lexis 8931, 93 FEP Cases (BNA) 1281 (10th Cir. 2004). {N/R}
     Illinois Labor Board declines to interfere with disciplinary action against officers who did not report outside earnings on their tax returns. There was no proof of union bias, and "the fact that [the officers] were more active members of the [union] is a mere coincidence." Metrop. Alliance of Police #165 and Vil. of Bensenville, #S-CA-00-197, 18 PERI (LRP) 2076, 2003 PERI (LRP) Lexis 1 (ILRB 2003). [2004 FP Jan]
     Arbitrator sustains the termination of an officer, who had a prior disciplinary offense, of neglect of duty and false reporting. He was sitting in a remote area outside his patrol zone on the graveyard shift, did not see his sergeant arrive for 20 minutes, and then falsely claimed he was only there a short period while on a meal break. The union's attempt to show disparate punishment failed. The other three cases involved a resignation; a last chance agreement for a 19 year veteran; and first-time discipline against the third officer. Management had no duty to conduct an I-A investigation where a sergeant saw the misconduct and there were no witnesses who had not been interviewed. City of Cooper City and Broward Co. PBA, 118 LA (BNA) 842, FMCS Case #020814/04630-3 (Hoffman, 2003). [2003 FP Nov]
     Arbitrator finds disparate treatment; management did not have just cause to suspend a detention officer who left several cell doors unlocked, where the officer who reported the infraction only did so because he had been instructed to write up everything she did, and did not report another officer who also left cell doors open. Lewis County and Teamsters L-252, Case #16946-A-02-1385, 118 LA (BNA) 685 (Ables, 2003). {N/R}

     Fifth Circuit reverses a jury verdict for a white ex-deputy who hit a wounded black suspect with a flashlight. The fact other officers were not fired for similar use of force incidents is irrelevant unless they were not white. McKenzie v. Lee, 00-30179, 246 F.3d 494, 2001 U.S. App. Lexis 5630, 85 FEP Cases (BNA) 1184 (5th Cir.). [2001 FP 121-2]
