Fired Montgomery County employees who try to get their jobs back, like former Assistant Fire Chief Greg DeHaven who was dismissed after crashing a county vehicle into three other cars following a day of drinking, face long odds in getting reinstated, county and court records show. The county board that reviews and has the power to reverse discipline cases, known as the Merit System Protection Board, has voted to reinstate only one employee from 2001 to 2008. The board sided with the county and upheld eight dismissals during that same period, although one case was later overturned by a circuit court ruling.
