1100.05000 – Dismissal of Charge; Appeal
Pursuant to PERB Regulation 32635(a), an appeal of a dismissal must sufficiently place the Board and the respondent on notice of the issues raised on appeal. In this case, RCAA’s appeal did not state the specific issues of procedure, fact, law or rational to which the appeal is taken, identify the page or part of the dismissal to which each appeal is taken, nor did it state the grounds for each issue stated. Thus, RCAA’s appeal did not comply with the requirements of PERB Regulation 32635(a).
