Boyd v. American Freight Systems

3 Citing cases

  1. Braithwaite v. Department of Commerce

    2003 Ohio 6562 (Ohio Ct. App. 2003)

    In re Claim of Guy (2001), 146 Ohio App.3d 20. In Boyd v. American Freight Systems (1988), 51 Ohio App.3d 185, 188, the court stated: * * * We agree with Boyd that the proper test is whether the employer's actual reason for discharging its employee is reasonable and just, not whether the employer might have had reasonable and just grounds for discharging its employee.

  2. In re Claim of Guy

    146 Ohio App. 3d 20 (Ohio Ct. App. 2001)   Cited 5 times

    The hearing officer's review is limited to considering the actual reason for a claimant's discharge and shall not consider evidence of circumstances which were not relied upon by the employer in making the separation decision. Boyd v. American Freight Systems (1988), 51 Ohio App.3d 185. Therefore, it was proper to disregard much of the evidence contained in the Civil Service Commission hearing transcript, as it involved testimony regarding the purchase of stolen tires by Guy.

  3. Apex Paper Box v. Adm. Bureau, Emp. S.

    No. 77423 (Ohio Ct. App. May. 11, 2000)   Cited 2 times

    It is not proper to consider the employee's previous disciplinary record. See Boyd v. American Freight Systems (1988), 51 Ohio App.3d 185. The court should consider only the stated reasons for the termination.
