: New York Public Personnel LawEmployee terminated after being found guilty of falsifying his time records
In the Application of Rodriguez, 258 AD2d 419
The Housing Authority terminated John Rodriguez after a disciplinary hearing officer found him guilty of claiming and obtaining overtime pay through the filing of false or misleading overtime records, including overtime pay for time spent commuting.
Rodriguez argued that because he was authorized to clock in and out at a place other than his work site, his claims for overtime were permitted under the Fair Labor Standards Act. The Appellate Division disagreed, stating that the agency?s imposing the ?penalty of dismissal does not shock our sense of fairness given what was systematic dishonesty, misrepresentation and falsification of records? by Rodriguez.
