Decision Number 784

SUBJECT TO FINAL EDITING


April 24, 1996

Decision


A grievance which has been judicially terminated cannot be the subject of another grievance based on the same facts and time period even though titled "amended grievance" as such would constitute double jeopardy. Only material not barred by the statute of limitations can be considered in the handling of the grievance. The date of receipt of the grievance stops the running of the statute of limitations.

Tom Matheny, President

Wayne Coffin, Secretary
