Synopsis Respondent moved to dismiss this grievance alleging that it was not filed within fifteen days of the date Grievant was notified that his reallocation did not include granting of backpay. Grievant argues that his filing was timely because it was simply part of the reallocation process with DOP. Respondent proved that a grievance for backpay is not part of the reallocation process and that Grievant’s claim was not filed within the mandatory time period set out in statute.
