First Division Award No. 24403 (Vaughn)

"The Board concludes, instead, that Claimant was properly suspended for a period of 30 days. We further conclude that his death terminated his claim for back pay. However, Claimant's estate is entitled to pay and benefits from the 31st day following his suspension, until his death; and his status should have remained that of an employee as of the time of his death."
