Sec. 7-419. Removal of officers or employees. No officer or employee in the
classified civil service shall be removed, discharged or reduced in rank or pay because of
religious or political opinion or affiliation. No removal from the classified civil service,
except at the expiration of the period of probation, shall be made by any appointing
power except for reasons given in writing to the board, and a copy of such reasons shall
be furnished to the person removed. Such person may thereupon file with the board in

the order of removal shall be made a part of the records of the board and of the proper
department or office; and the reasons for any change in rank or compensation within
the classified service shall also be made a part of the records of the board and of the
proper department or office. Nothing contained in this chapter shall be so construed as
to require the examination of witnesses or any trial or hearing before or after reduction
or removal.(1949 Rev., S. 881.)
