O'Meara case upholds full bench powers over police
The Supreme Court rules the police commissioner may hear complaints against a patrolman and discharge for cause without a trial board. The decision states the commissioner retains all powers of the former police commission except liquor licenses, giving him sole authority to dismiss officers despite a trial board’s input. Welch was discharged last July after challenging the procedure.
