A police officer was sanctioned with a two-month suspension without pay for off-duty conduct involving a vehicle trip to a bar and allowing an intoxicated person to drive. On appeal, the recourse commission found the disciplinary measure justified but reduced it to one month, taking into account the officer's excellent service record and sincere remorse.
LPOL. 26 al. 1; disciplinary suspension of a police officer; proportionality of the sanction. A disciplinary measure may be upheld in principle where off-duty conduct undermines the dignity or reliability expected of a police officer, but the duration must be fixed by weighing the seriousness of the misconduct against mitigating factors such as an otherwise excellent service record and genuine remorse. The reviewing authority may reduce the sanction when the original duration is excessive in light of those circumstances (consid. unspecified).

Whether the disciplinary suspension without pay was proportionate.
The sanction was upheld in principle but reduced to one month in light of the officer's excellent service record and sincere remorse.
