Guard's Hearing Is Continued TO PERA
The state Civil Service Board halted a prison guard’s hearing, continuing it to Wednesday. Franklin D. Fisher, an 18 year veteran, is accused of letting inmates brew and drink home brew. Fisher denies the charges and says he will tell his story at the rescheduled hearing. The continuance follows War den Tracy Hand’s request to call absent witnesses. In a separate action, Aaron M Kennedy, a Pittsburg District highway employee, was restored to permanent civil service as a laborer with interim pay after a clerical error kept his status unentered. Kennedy previously held acting maintenance work, a higher role, at dismissal. The board noted he did not have permanent status in that capacity and offered no reason for dismissal.
