Béchard and Treasury Board (National Defence)

Before: Y. Tarte
Appearances: Decided without an oral hearing
Decision rendered: August 25, 1998

Termination (disciplinary reasons) - Grievance procedure - Abandonment of grievance - the grievor filed a grievance against his termination of employment - his representative requested, and obtained, a postponement of the Board's hearing on three occasions - the grievor's representative then informed the Board that he was no longer representing the grievor - the Board wrote to the grievor asking him to indicate his intentions with respect to the adjudication of his grievance - no reply was received to the letter - the Board wrote again to the grievor informing him that, if no response was received, it could terminate the proceedings and close the file - the grievor did not respond to the letter - the Board therefore terminated the proceedings and the case was closed.

Grievance denied.
