Source Evidence
Source Text
The facts of the case specifically note Engineer A's employment contract with the City did not include a revolving door prohibition such as Engineer P faced in Case 15-8. Thus, on the face of the matter, it would seem there is no legal barrier to Engineer A accepting employment with Firm AE&R
