From your comment, my understanding is you work in the State of New York. I am in Wisconsin, and represent people out of WI with some types of claims (e.g. federal wage and fraud claims). However, I think the types of potential legal issues you describe would be best reviewed by an employment attorney licensed in New York.

Here is a link to a list of employee rights attorneys in New York: http://www.nela.org/NELA/index.cfm?event=showAppPage&pg=members&membersAction=membersSearchResults&configid=105&showfullpage=1

I recommend you contact an NY employee rights attorney to evaluate your matter.

Sorry I couldn’t be of more help.

I was terminated from my job last Friday for what the Union is alleging was Out-of Title work expectaions. The firing came as a suprise to me because I was a probationary employee just one week short of completing my probationary term for pemanent employment status.

My boss the day of the firing had signed time off slips for the next few weeks,also. I also had very positive probationary reports for the 11 months prior to this with no disciplinary problems, good work relationship and positive work reviews.

I work for NYs and I was a Civil service appointment. I am attempting to
fight this through all channels. But the issue here is this termination was
a suprise and unexpected. Is this a matter of “Bad Faith under the law?
Thanks Mary Regan
