California Court of Appeal

In an appeal from a judgment of the trial court awarding plaintiff backpay for the period between his summary dismissal and his plea of no contest to two felony counts, judgment is affirmed where summary termination without notice, or the opportunity for an administrative appeal, violated the Public Safety Officers Procedural Bill of Rights Act (POBRA), and because the court correctly denied preclusive effect to either the felony convictions or certain waivers plaintiff signed purporting to waiving POBRA protections.
