NYPD, FDNY, DSNY, NYC Dept. of Corrections Disqualification Appeals

The disappointment and frustration of receiving a disqualification letter from NYPD, FDNY, DSNY or New York City Department of Corrections can be addressed by taking action rather than giving up. One of the great parts of New York City civil service jobs is the New York City Civil Service Commission.  The process of appeals has improved dramatically over the  more than 18 years I have been helping disqualified candidates appeal their disqualifications.

I have created this video to explain the civil service job disqualification appeal process.

Visit my website http://www.sheerinlaw.com  for more information about the disqualification appeal process.

New York State Civil Service Law Section 76 Disciplinary Penalty Appeals

Sheerin Law

New York State Civil Service Law section 76 allows permanent civil service employees to appeal disciplinary penalties.

The statute states in pertinent part: http://public.leginfo.state.ny.us/lawssrch.cgi?NVLWO:

The New York City Civil Service Commission website explains the Commission’s role in the process:

http://www.nyc.gov/html/csc/html/appeals/s76disciplinary.shtml

After receiving discipline an employee may choose to file a lawsuit or Article 78 or appeal to the local Civil Service Commission. You can only choose one. You cannot file an Article 78 after appealing to the Commission or vice versa.  Click this link which is a case describing the choice of one appeal type only.

The issues the Commission decides are:

  1. Is there substantial evidence in the disciplinary hearing record to support the decision?
  2. Was proper procedure followed?
  3. Is the penalty reasonable?

If you believe the disciplinary penalty you received was improper or excessive, or you are facing termination, you should discuss your case with an attorney who helps civil service employees.
