Police and Firefighters Prevail in Court

The Advertiser reports on a ruling, made Monday by State Judge Edward Rubin, that requires the Lafayette Consolidated Government to pay a group of about 600 former and current police officers and firefighters back pay. The payments, which are estimated to be around 10 to 12 million dollars, are the result of the Lafayette government's mishandling of state supplemental pay. The council will have to decide whether or not to appeal.
