Synopsis Grievant filed a grievance against the Barbour County Fiduciary Commissioner protesting the Fiduciary Commissioner’s actions relating to an estate. Grievant is not an employee grieving the actions of her public employer; she is a citizen protesting actions taken by a county official. The Grievance Board lacks jurisdiction in this matter. Accordingly, the grievance must be dismissed.
