BILL NUMBER:  AB 2032
  VETOED	DATE: 09/30/2014




To the Members of the California State Assembly:

I am returning Assembly Bill 2032 without my signature.

If the State Personnel Board fails to issue a decision on a
disciplinary appeal within six months, this bill requires the burden
of proof to remain with the state employer if the employee pursues
court action.

Last year, I signed AB 1062 that requires the Board to issue a
decision within the six month timeframe. The law hasn't even been in
place a year. Let's give it a little more time before making
fundamental changes, as proposed by this bill.

Sincerely,


Edmund G. Brown Jr.
