Metropolitan Government of Nashville And Davidson County, Tennessee v. Civil Service Commission Of The Metropolitan Government of Nashville And Davidson County, Tennessee, Et Al.

In this judicial review of an administrative decision, the trial court reversed the civil service commission’s decision to reinstate a police officer to his position upon finding that the commission’s reversal of the police department’s termination of the employee was arbitrary and capricious.  The employee has appealed.  Having determined that the findings of the civil service commission were supported by substantial and material evidence but that its ultimate decision was arbitrary and capricious, we affirm the judgment of the trial court reversing the commission’s decision.
