Can a peace officer be terminated without cause?
California, United States of America
The following excerpt is from Gray v. City of Gustine, 224 Cal.App.3d 621, 273 Cal.Rptr. 730 (Cal. App. 1990):
Gustine relies on Swift v. County of Placer (1984) 153 Cal.App.3d 209, 200 Cal.Rptr. 181 to support its contention that termination of a peace officer terminable without cause is not "punitive action" triggering the "administrative appeal" under section 3304, subdivision (b). As we shall explain, Swift is distinguishable.
