Nope. COMPLETELY unrelated matter. Sorry.
Nothing to see here! He was right, she was wrong, but HE had all the LEGAL responsibilities and so the company has to ensure they dot the i and cross the t before washing their hands of this. Last time they tried to spank a Captain and make a point, she ended up walking away with a rather large (enough to comfortably retire on the interest sized) "settlement." I am not sure they want to go down that path again, so he gets an nice extended summer vacation WITH FULL PAY and time heals all wounds
