“…Attorney’s fees should be awarded only when the action of the appointing authority is found to be unreasonable. Based on the evidence present at this hearing, I conclude that (the) Department of Revenue was unreasonable in going forward on its charge. Therefore…I award attorney’s fees to Ms. Pike in the amount of $1500.”
—Louisiana Civil Service Commission referee Roxie F. Goynes, in her ruling in favor of Lisa Pike, an agent with the State Office of Alcohol and Tobacco Control Commissioner Troy Hebert, a former state senator appointed by Gov. Piyush Jindal. Hebert had suspended Pike when her doctor refused to provide weekly medical reports while she was on extended medical leave.
Louisiana Voice 
Mr. Hebert doesn’t realize the work a doctor does day in and day out., nights in and nights out. Undoubtedly, Mr. Hebert doesn’t have enough to do with controlling alcohol and tobacco abuse in Louisiana, give him another job, maybe he can track Jindal, no one else seems to be able to keep up with him.
There is a strong need to crank down on ALL Jindal appointees as well as BESE and also his pet legislators. They need to learn, especially the legislators that they need to pick up their privates out of Jindal’s desk drawer and act lilke the men (and women) they were elected to be. This legislative session must rescind some of his laws and also reduce his power such as by making his appointments and firings contingent on their approval and getting rid of the line item veto
Appointments are subject to confirmation by the Senate.
Whomever succeeds Jindal needs to fire every last one of them and investigate them for corruption/malfeasance where appropriate. Then they can pony up some legal fees.
