Judge voids four Upper Darby police promotions
Delaware County Judge Howard F. Reed Jr ruled that Upper Darby violated civil service provisions in promoting four policemen between 1977 and 1980. The officers are to be returned to their prior ranks and salaries, with the township ordered to follow civil service requirements in all future promotions. The suit, filed by attorney Alexander A. DiSanti, argued promotions lacked eligible lists and examinations, and the ruling cautions Home Rule communities must still comply with state civil service laws.
