Norwalk Police Seek Raise in Supreme Court Case
Norwalk police officer John L. Roberts sues the City of Norwalk seeking a 50 cent daily raise authorized by an ordinance never paid. The case, heard yesterday by Judge Judas Regth, will go to the Supreme Court to decide legal points. The dispute centers on a September council ordinance raising patrolmen pay from 3.25 to a higher rate, which the mayor refused to enforce. The board of finance and council are cited, with blame placed on Mayor Donov an for not submitting the matter for finance board approval. Roberts testified he was chosen to bring a test case, indicating wider police department support behind the move. Two weeks were allowed to file stipulations and proposed findings of fact.
