Synopsis
|
Grievant was given a written reprimand for allegedly ordering her secretary to listen in on meetings Grievant was conducting, from a position where the secretary could not be seen. Respondent argued that this activity was in violation of a directive Grievant had been given to not request her secretary to sit in on meetings as a witness. Grievant alleged that she merely asked her secretary to stay in the office and listen in case the meeting got out of hand. The secretary was not to take notes or serve as a witness to the meetings. Respondent did not prove the reasons for the written reprimand.
