4387 REVIEW DENIED A public entity's common law liability for adverse employment action in violation of public policy can only be vicarious for conduct of its employees, and only if the employees themselves would be liable; employees of a public entity are absolutely immune from liability for instituting and prosecuting an administrative proceeding, so the entity cannot be vicariously liable for their conduct in doing so.CitationROSS v SF BART (Public Entity) 146 CA4 1507 [See: GovC 815, 815.2, 821.6; Tameny v ARCO 27 C3 167]
