Interdiction from Duty
Interdiction from Duty is the temporary removal of an officer from normal duty, usually pending the outcome of criminal or disciplinary proceedings, under the conditions allowed by the public-service rules.
Important distinction
Interdiction is not the same as dismissal. It is an interim measure used where continued presence on duty is inappropriate or prejudicial while a serious matter is being determined.
Why it matters
Interdiction affects pay treatment, access to government systems, recordkeeping, and the integrity of investigations. Agencies need clear authority, dates, and case references when using it.
