MODIFIED. Grievant was removed following a fight with a co-worker. Grievant, a local union president, became involved in an altercation with a co-worker who was running with the grievant's opponent in an upcoming union election. The arbitrator found that the State's case was flawed because no convincing evidence was presented that the grievant was the aggressor. However, it was clear that a discipline offense occurred. Due to the grievant's long record of past discipline, the removal was reduced to a twenty day suspension.
