Outcome
The Administrative Law Judge found the employer lacked just cause for the initial termination based on the charger incident, but barred reinstatement and front pay based on after-acquired evidence of the employee's falsified job application regarding his criminal history. The Court of Appeals affirmed, holding the after-acquired evidence doctrine applied to limit the employee's remedies to 14 days of back pay.
