Nolan Perroni wins important case in New Hampshire – Board rules termination of female Deputy Fire Marshall was an "injustice"

Nolan Perroni recently won an important case on behalf of a female NEPBA member formerly employed by the New Hampshire Department of Safety. In a case litigated by attorneys Peter Perroni and Gary Nolan, the New Hampshire Personnel Appeals Board ruled that the Commissioner of Safety improperly terminated the employment of a Deputy Fire Marshall in 2021. The Board found expressly that the employee did not obstruct an investigation as alleged and that any alleged violation of a work rule could have been addressed by a simple letter of warning.

Importantly, the Board also found it concerning that male supervisors who had been involved in related investigations were allowed to either resign or transfer to different departments within the State. Following multiple days of hearing spanning several months, the Board ruled that the termination of the employee was an “injustice” and ordered the rescission of the termination and her reinstatement to her position.
