While such addictions amount to illness, an employer does not have to
tolerate breaches of the terms of employment contracts, and a dismissal of a drunk employee would be for such breach, and not for the underlying condition.
A significant sanction against 1664092 in the form

term of incarceration for Mr. Grit would seem the only way to enforce compliance with the orders
breached, and to send a message to the general public that open defiance
of court orders shall not be
tolerated.
