just a point to consider.
Or a few actually.
This sounds like capability issues of the individual. So you need evidence of the whole issues and what you did about it. (expert employment lawyer will help identify what is an issue and what isn't)
The issue of him not turning is seperate and needs to be dealt with seperatly after the first issue is resolved.
The employee has rights. Ensure he is given the chance to let them protect him.
The employer has rights too. Use them to protect the company.
Do you have a written and agreed disciplinary procedure and did you follow it
do you have a capability procedure and have you followed that
Remove all emotion from the facts and stick to the facts only. Anyone about to lose his job is going to come out fighting, and do not be surprised they do that. However annoying it may be, it is not a shock and should be tolerated, which is why he has advice and is doing what he is doing. This should not have been a surprise.
The other issue is to ensure you know how much it will cost your company is you terminate out of procedure. (It might be worth it, but it will not your reputation any good).
Once the issues are resolved (assuming you do not terminate his employment), then you can monitor his progress, and he will either become capable, or he will fail to achieve and will not longer be capable of performing the job you employed him for.
Have you provided appropriate training for him? (If not, you may have to consider this as a reasonable step, assuming you are not able to terminate)
You gave him a job to work for you, not work against you. You have to give him the change to perform what is asked. If he has that chance and cannot do it, he is out. You just have to prove you have done all that already.
Proper lawyer with employment knowledge needed. But it will be along the lines of the above so now you can get prepared while you wait formal advice.
