Merit Appeals Board <br />July 15, 2024 <br />And under 76-14 we would ask you to exercise or look at these facts liberally, and take <br />jurisdiction over this matter. Thank you. I have nothing further. If you have any questions, be <br />happy to answer. <br />MR. WISEMAN: Mr. Hong, one question. Subsequent to your client getting the notices, was he <br />still doing the same job? <br />MR. HONG: Yes. <br />MR. WISEMAN: Thank you. <br />CHR. CABANAS: So, Mr. Hong, you stated that there's aI guess, it's a grey area regarding <br />the date of notice to him? That's what you're saying, right? <br />MR. HONG: That's correct. <br />CHR. CABANAS: Did they ever give him a letter from Mr.—did Mr. Pause ever give him a <br />letter? <br />MR. HONG: No. <br />CHR. CABANAS: No letter? <br />MR. HONG: The only thing that he got documenting what was happening to him three things. <br />The March 20d' email that, basically says your recruitment is being terminated or cancelled. The <br />second thing was his Personnel Action Form that shows that. But, again, during this period of <br />time, not only was the Director talking to the Civil Service Director—but also the Mayor was <br />talking to the Civil Service Director saying this is a mistake or this is wrong or reconsider. <br />And until he got his paycheck, then he went, "Hook, my goodness"—and he looked at what he <br />was paid—if that's what you can call it in that paycheck that's when he knew this was a reality <br />that he needed to address, and that's why he filed his appeal to the Merit Appeals Board. <br />CHR. CABANAS: Because the Personnel Action FormI need to look at it. <br />MR. HONG: It's dated April 2nd <br />CHR. CABANAS: Yes. It was signed April 2nd but they don't normally get it on April 2nd <br />MR. HONG: Right. <br />CHR. CABANAS: It comes later. So, he got his paystub first, right? <br />MR. HONG: Right. <br />Page 31 <br />
