Human Resource Board Reinstates CPD Applicant to Eligibility List
CPD Candidate, A.C. was disqualified from the applicant list based on his polygraph examination. It was alleged that A.C.'s conduct during his polygraph examination interfered with the examiner's ability to reasonably gather data, and thus, warranted his disqualification based on an indication of deception. At the hearing, we were able to prove that A.C. did not intentionally interfere with the polygraph examination and he was erroneously disqualified. The hearing officer and the Human Resources Board both agreed that A.C. should be reinstated to the eligibility list for the position of police officer with CPD.
