Court to Rule on Preference For Veterans in State Law
April 27 report says Judge William F. Hirt will issue an opinion on the constitutionality of the Pennsylvania law granting a 15 percent advantage to veterans in police civil service tests. A hearing set for May 2 will address injunctions to restrain the marking of top appointments from the police list that places thirteen veterans in the top fifteen. The city faces separate suits: one to rescind the appointment of Joseph Schmidt as assistant building inspector, and another to determine non veteran challenges to the police eligibility list. Solicitor Murphy plans to respond to the non veteran suit this week to speed a ruling on the act.
