0002 2514 44 (Sept. 11, 2014) – A claimant who was placed on a disciplinary suspension could not be disqualified under G.L. c. 151A, § 25(f), because the suspension was indefinite.  Since the claimant remained on suspension at the time he filed an unemployment claim, his separation was properly analyzed under G.L. c. 151A, § 29, regardless of the fact that he was subsequently discharged.
