STATEMENT OF CLAIM: Claim of the System Committee of the Brotherhood (GL-6450) that:
OPINION OF BOARD: The claim herein arose following Carrier's dismissal from service of Claimant Catherine K. Georgian, stenographer-clerk.
On April 3, 1967, Carrier's Division Engineer filed written charges against the Claimant for alleged rule violations resulting from her deportment in her dealings with other employes and reported insubordination to the Assistant to the Division Engineer, and requested that she appear for formal investigation at 2:30 P. M., April 5, 1967. In the letter of charges Claimant was cited for violation of Rules 700 and 701 on numerous specific instances. The investigation was postponed at the request of the Organization until April 7, 1967. A copy of the transcript of the investigation, consisting of 115 pages, has been submitted by the Petitioner and the Carrier.
A careful review of the transcript of the investigation convinces the Board that Claimant was given a fair and impartial investigation, and that no^e of her substantive rights under the Agreement were violated.
The transcript contains substantial evidence in support of the charges against the Claimant. While some of the evidence was controverted by Claimant this Board has repeatedly held that it will not attempt to resolve conflicts in evidence.
Based on the entire record, there is no proper reason for disturbing the action of the Carrier, and the claim will, therefore, be denied.
FINDINGS: The Third Division of the Adjustment Board, upon the whole record and all the evidence, finds and holds:
That the Carrier and the Employes involved in this dispute are respectively Carrier and Employes within the meaning of the Railway Labor Act, as approved June 21, 1934;
That this Division of the Adjustment Board has jurisdiction over the dispute involved herein; and
