DisputeSoft was engaged in November 2014 by the Public Employees Federation of New York in connection with a disciplinary proceeding against one of its members, who was an employee of the New York Department of Finance, for allegedly being involved in a pushing-and-shoving altercation at a meeting at work.
The employee filed a union grievance claiming that his actions were in response to being pushed and shoved himself. A security camera video captured claimant shoving, but it did not appear to capture shoving by his co-workers, which claimant alleged precipitated the altercation.
