Breaking: A judge has overturned Sheriff Alex Villanueva’s controversial decision to reinstate a deputy fired after violating departmental policy.

A judge on Monday overturned Sheriff Alex Villanueva’s controversial decision to reinstate a deputy who had been fired for violating department policies regarding domestic violence and lying — a dispute that ended up pitting some of Los Angeles County’s most powerful elected officials against one another.

Los Angeles Superior Court Judge Mitchell L. Beckloff ruled that Villanueva must remove the deputy, Caren Carl Mandoyan, from his job. Mandoyan also must return county property, including his gun and badge.settles the narrow question of whether the sheriff had overstepped his legal authority in this case. But it also bolsters the view of the L.A. County Board of Supervisors that it has authority to weigh in on controversial county employment decisions.

The supervisors took the highly unusual step of suing the independently elected sheriff and his department in March, saying his rehiring of Mandoyan was unlawful because it stemmed from a legal settlement that was not signed by the county’s attorneys and was not approved by the county’s personnel director.The dispute was a high-stakes gamble for Villanueva, who relies on supervisors to fund his department.

The ruling for now removes Mandoyan — whom county officials have refused to pay, despite his reinstatement — from any work as a deputy. The judge will still consider other terms of the broader lawsuit later.of an elected sheriff and trying to treat deputies more fairly than his predecessor, Jim McDonnell. He also has said that he believes the supervisors don’t have the power to control his department’s personnel decisions.

stiles Hey Stiles, when are you going to report on the systemic violation of deputies’ constitutional rights to advance the fake agenda set out by Diana Teran under McDonnell? Or violating deputies’ constitutional rights and basic human rights is your thingy?

The credible evidence upon review paints a very unflattering portrait of Villanueva. Seems as though he did not learn anything watching former sheriff Leroy Baca. One is supposed to learn from the mistakes of others. Not repeat them. RT
