    Yes. I have got to admit, I looked through the OP's "evidence" that the dismissal wasn't performance related and came to the conclusion that based on his side of the story, it wasn't convincing that it wsn't performance related.

All ET proceedings are a matter of public record and that has to be considered for the future, local journos will routinely check the listings for 'interesting' cases.
