Synopsis
|
Grievant was employed by Respondent as the Director of Nursing. Grievant filed this action alleging she had been given an improper directive and sought its withdrawal. While this grievance was pending, Grievant was dismissed from her employment and she grieved the same. This matter was placed in abeyance pending the outcome of her separate dismissal grievance. The Grievance Board issued a decision denying Grievant’s dismissal grievance on April 26, 2018. As Grievant is no longer employed by Respondent, any decision on the issue of the alleged improper directive would merely be a declaration that one party is right or wrong, would have no substantive consequence, and would merely be advisory in nature. Therefore, grievance is now moot. Accordingly, this grievance is DISMISSED.
