Jack Don Webster v. State Indiana

A state agency dismissed an employee. The employee appealed to the review board. The board modified the agencys finding that suspension of the employee and a demotion was the appropriate sanction. The state agency appealed. The district court found that the board had statutory authority to affirm or reverse an agency action but lacked authority to modify the agencys action and remanded the matter to the board to affirm or reverse the agencys action. The employee appealed the district courts finding and remand to the board. While this appeal was pending, the board redetermined the matter and affirmed the agencys dismissal of the employee.
