Three Tucson Officers Challenge City Pension Ordinance
Three Tucson police officers Milo W. Walker David J. Putney and Joseph E. Rice filed suit against the city mayor the city council and the attorney general seeking a declaratory judgment to set aside ordinance 691 claiming it violates state law and exceeds municipal power. They argue the city repealed its local pension and adopted the state act then reenacted the local ordinance thereby exceeding authority by diverting funds from the general fund. The suit in superior court questions constitutionality of the pension ordinance and its relation to state legislation.
