Judgment No. 309
Decision
THE COMPLAINT IS DISMISSED.
Considerations
Extract:
The complainant's resignation, "which he gave of his own free will and without duress, was fully valid in law. It may have been given somewhat lightly, but the complainant is alone responsible and that fact does not vitiate its legal validity."

Considerations
Extract:
It appears that "because of her attitude [the secretary] ought long before to have been compulsorily transferred [...] and the complainant [as her supervisor] behaved with great and unfailing propriety. But it cannot be said that the effect of [the secretary's] regrettable behaviour and of the [...] Director's equally regrettable inaction was either to put the complainant in a position which in practice precluded his continuing as chief of unit [...] or to impair his free will."
