On April 1, 2007, Officer Becker reported for duty with a blood alcohol content of 0.045, exceeding the department’s limit of 0.04. He admitted to consuming between six and eight shots of liquor before his shift. The department’s policy deems reporting for duty under the influence as a serious offense, typically resulting in termination. Consequently, Officer Becker was terminated from his position. He appealed the decision, but both the Sunset City Board of Appeals and the Utah Court of Appeals upheld his termination.
