Murdock Abandons Appeal

In a surprise move former police constable Allan Murdock has withdrawn his appeal of his termination by the Moose Jaw Police Service (MJPS).

No reason was given for the withdrawl of the case which would have seen an appeal hearing being held starting October 6th at the Grant Hall Hotel.

Former constable Murdock was teminated based upon a number of complaints which will now not be dealt with in a public legal forum.

While representing himself Murdock was able to establish precedent as to who is considered a probationary officer under the Saskatchewan Police Act winning a decison from adjudicator Jay Watson on the matter.
