Syllabus

Pursuant to its statutory responsibility under R.C. 2506.04, the common pleas court considered the entire record and evaluated all evidence as to witness credibility, the probative character of the evidence, and the weight to be afforded the evidence, and gave due deference to civil service commission's resolution of evidentiary conflicts in determining that commission's decision to terminate school district employee's emloyment was supported by the preponderance of reliable, probative, and substantial evidence. Employing the very limited and deferential standard of review afforded a court of appeals pursuant to RC. 2506.04, we cannot find that the common pleas court abused its discretion in so finding.
