This morning’s Los Angeles Times has an article about Miles Locker’s departure from the DLSE:
In a 22-page complaint detailing Locker’s dismissal, labor standard
officials charged him with trying to undermine his supervisors’ efforts
to interpret state wage and hour laws. The complaint, relying in part
on e-mails taken from Locker’s office computer, called him disloyal
because he "secretly communicated … disagreements" with his supervisors
to lawyers outside the government.The complaint also accused Locker, who is appealing his firing to the
state Personnel Board, of making comments last year that ridiculed
then-Labor Commissioner Donna Dell.
