Civil Service Decisions

The Commission dismissed the appeal of a Brockton Fire Lieutenant who challenged his score on the Situational Judgement Test (SJT) component and the Experience/Certification/Training & Education (ECT&E) component of the Statewide Fire Captain Promotional Exam.

Bypass appeal denied. The Appellant's recent criminal history coupled with a pattern of failing to appear for court appearances provided the Department of Correction with reasonable justification to bypass the Appellant for the position of Correction Officer I.

Since there is no dispute that the Appellant does not currently perform those CSR III duties a majority of her time, or that she has received out-of-grade pay retroactive to the date of her reclassification appeal being filed with MassDOT, the Commission is not empowered to grant further relief.
