According to the San Francisco Chronicle, the new chief says he wants to see the majority of roughly 75 discipline cases pending before the police commission dropped.

/*Gascon*/ says the cases involve charges of minor misconduct. They include inappropriate language, being discourteous or failing to properly fill out a police report.

The chief says cases involving more serious complaints including harassment or use of unnecessary force would be pursued and could end in termination.
