Synopsis
|
Respondent notes that Grievant resigned his position with the DHHR prior to the effective date of the demotion. Respondent argues that since Grievant is no longer a State employee and he suffered no loss of pay prior to his resignation, the matter is now moot. Grievant indicated that he wished to go forward with the grievance after his resignation to clear his name. There is no remaining remedy with can be granted by the Grievance Board after Grievant’s resignation which renders this matter moot.
