Synopsis Grievant filed the instant grievance alleging witnesses had lied under oath in a separate grievance. For relief, Grievant sought only money damages for harassment and emotional distress. Respondent moved to dismiss the grievance alleging Grievant seeks a remedy wholly unavailable through the grievance process. The Grievance Board does not have the authority to award money damages for harassment or emotional distress. Accordingly, the grievance is dismissed.
