Supreme Court allows dismissal of police employee for drunk driving due to character requirements.

The Supreme Court reversed the lower court's decision to reinstate a police employee who had been dismissed for driving under the influence. While the lower court ruled that the employee was a civil servant and the dismissal lacked a direct link to his duties as a conservator, the Supreme Court held otherwise. The court determined that the specific nature of police work requires an impeccable character, making the criminal conviction a valid ground for termination under the relevant statutes.
