The Commission affirmed the decision of the Boston Police Department to bypass a candidate for appointment as a permanent, full-time police officer based on the candidate’s undisputed – and recent – poor judgment in impermissibly assisting an individual with taking a learner’s permit exam.
The Commission denied the Appellant's bypass appeal. The Appointing Authority had reasonable justification to bypass a candidate for appointment as a police officer who provided implausible, inconsistent and incomplete responses about his residency and employment history during the application process.
Reclassification appeal denied. The Appellant was unable to show that he performed the level distinguishing duties of a Environmental Analyst IV a majority of the time.
