Description
This is an appeal from a judgment of the Appellate Court, Second District, reversing a judgment of the circuit court of Du Page County in administrative review affirming a decision of the Board of Fire and Police Commissioners of the village of Villa Park which discharged plaintiff from the police force of the village. Leave to appeal to this court previously was granted. Roy Fantozzi was a police officer from October 14, 1955, until June 7, 1960, at which time he was suspended,, pending the filing of charges. His attorney just prior to his suspension wrote a letter to the village police department advising that Fantozzi had filed a petition in bankruptcy and that a restraining order had issued against his creditors. Shortly thereafter, William M. Holler, chief of police, addressed a letter to the secretary of the board advising of the filing of such petition and stating that, in view of that fact, it was the opinion of the police committee that charges be preferred against him and that if proved, he be discharged. Charges were preferred against him by the chairman of the police committee of the board of trustees of the village, charging that he ""failed to pay his debts or to make reasonable provision for paying them, to the annoyance of his superior officer or officers, and to the scandal of the service in such a way that it has affected his capacity and fitness to perform his duties.""
