Local government whistle-blowers cannot bank on being protected unless they alert their local bosses of their allegations, the First District Court of Appeal ruled Wednesday.
In a unanimous ruling, the appellate court said former Panama City Housing Authority maintenance man Kenneth Quintini could not be protected under state whistle-blower protections after making charges to federal officials before he was laid off in 2008.
