Does Non-Teaching School Employee Have Right to Public Pre-Disciplinary Hearing?
Adam Stewart v. Board of Education of Lockland Local School District, Case No. 2014-0164
First District Court of Appeals (Hamilton County)
ISSUES:
- Does R.C. 121.22(G)(1) give a non-teaching school employee the right to demand a public hearing?
- Is a pre-termination Loudermill hearing a public hearing "elsewhere provided by law"?
- Does the U.S. Supreme Court's 1985 ruling in Cleveland Bd. of Education v. Loudermill overrule Ohio's ruling in Matheny v. Frontier Local Bd. of Edn., which was made five years earlier?
