Writ Denied for Ousted County Officer
A writ of mandate to reinstate discharged county officer Robert S. Smith was denied by Superior Court Judge John A. Westwick. The ruling upholds Smith’s firing from last June and leaves him optioned to appeal, while the county continues with Wilbur S. Wagstaff as personnel director. The hearing questioned potential prejudgment by the Board of Supervisors after they enacted their own findings despite a hearing officer’s recommendation for reinstatement with suspension.
