No specific laws identified for this ruling.
The court affirmed the Merit Commission's decision to impose a 75-day suspension rather than discharge for a state employee (Kunz) who was found to have slept on the job, disclosed a confidential driver's license test, and taken unauthorized personal time. The court held that while the charges were serious, the Commission's penalty was not arbitrary, unreasonable, or unrelated to the requirements of service.
