Docket entry

161777 Osburn v. Dep't of Alcoholic Beverage Control 02/22/2018 In an appeal from a state employee grievance proceeding brought by a special agent of the Virginia Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control who was terminated, the opinion of the Court of Appeals is vacated. For the reasons stated in the present opinion, the judgment of that court is affirmed -- upholding the circuit court's affirmance of a hearing officer's decision to uphold the agent's termination based on his actions that failed to follow Department policy, regulations and training, and violated the constitutional rights of a retail alcohol license applicant.
