Why Did I Receive an NYPD Disqualification?

An NYPD candidate can be disqualified from a law enforcement position for a number of reasons, such as:

Psychological issues: Which include anxiety, depression, anger, poor judgment, poor impulse control, poor stress tolerance, poor interpersonal skills and substance misuse, just to name a few.

School records: Candidates can also be disqualified for having an Individual Education Plan (IEP) or having taken ADHD medicine while in school.

Other factors: Racial bias, poor presentation, immaturity, and failure to adjust to adulthood are other factors that can lead to a candidate receiving a disqualification.

The NYPD’s psychological exam is designed to assess a candidate’s emotional and psychological fitness for law enforcement. The exam includes both a written test and an oral interview. The written test consists of questionnaires, symptom inventories, and personality inventory measures, while the oral interview is a one-on-one evaluation with a psychologist.

If you have been disqualified, you can appeal the decision by hiring an independent psychologist to assess you. You may also want to explain that what happened while you were in school is not your current state or condition. In any event, you should take some type of action in order to avoid having the disqualification become final, as this may affect your ability to get any other civil service jobs in the future.

Our firm is led by a retired NYPD Captain with experience in the NYPD Legal Bureau. We have helped numerous candidates successfully appeal their disqualifications over the past 22 years, and we understand the complexities of the process better than anyone.

In addition to offering the industry standards associated with appealing an NYPD Psychological Disqualification, at the Law Firm of Kevin P. Sheerin, Candidates are offered the option to Reply to their NYPD Disqualification, as we believe Replies can be an effective tool when a Candidate Receives a Notice of Proposed Disqualification (NOPD).

Your Reply will not only list point-by-point responses to the NYPD’s factual and expert assertions, but will also reassert your expert’s findings and offer legal arguments that challenge the sufficiency and validity of the NYPD’s evidence and findings.

Kevin and his experienced legal team have found Replies to be a powerful tool, as rebutting new arguments, clarifying facts and protecting the records can often change the outcome of a Candidate’s disqualification.

How to Reply to an NYPD Disqualification…

As Appeal Attorneys, we offer Candidates the option to Reply to their NYPD Disqualification, because here, at the Law Firm of Kevin P. Sheerin, we believe Replies are a very effective tool when a Candidate Receives a Notice of Proposed Disqualification (NOPD).

Kevin has found Replies to be an integral part of a Candidate’s Rebuttal or Appeal Package. Replies often contain relevant letters, psychological/medical reports, supporting evidence, and legal arguments that can have a huge impact on a Candidate’s Disqualification Appeal.

While the NYPD (or DCAS) Answer often contains such things as a summary of their findings, justification for the disqualification, rebuttals to your expert’s conclusions or the NYPD psychologist or investigator’s statements, your Reply can, in turn, provide you with the opportunity to respond to any new issues raised in the NYPD’s Answer. The main purpose of your Reply is to address any new issues that may have been raised and introduce any new evidence or arguments. For example, if the NYPD misrepresented you in their psychological report or made any errors, you Reply can correct the record. Furthermore, a well-crafted Reply will make certain that your arguments are preserved and the record is clear. For instance, if you were erroneously disqualified because the NYPD failed to follow internal guidelines, you can emphasize this fact as well as any others, in your Reply.

At the Law Firm of Kevin P. Sheerin, your Reply will not only list point-by-point responses to the NYPD’s factual and expert assertions, but will also reassert your expert’s findings and offer legal arguments that challenge the sufficiency and validity of the NYPD’s evidence and findings.

Kevin and his experienced legal team have found Replies to be a powerful tool, as rebutting new arguments, clarifying facts and protecting the records can often change the outcome of a Candidate’s disqualification.
