3320 Discipline, Termination, and Nonrenewal of Employment Contracts

Employees with a definite term contract may be disciplined or terminated if the decision to do so is based on a “good and sufficient reason,” which shall be defined as any reason that is not wholly frivolous and inconsequential, and that has a reasonable basis in fact.

The decision to discipline or terminate an employee without a definite contract term, as well as the decision to nonrenew a contract for a definite term, shall be made on any basis other than a basis which is “arbitrary and capricious,” which shall be defined as an action which is either so unreasonable as to be without rational basis, or the result of unconsidered, willful, or irrational choice.
