§ 9-112 Suspension of members of the uniformed force.

AC § 9-112

Where a member of the uniformed force shall be charged with the commission of a crime, he or she may be suspended without pay for the duration of the time that said criminal charges are pending final disposition. If the member is found not guilty of such criminal charges he or she shall be paid full back pay for the period of suspension. However, after the final disposition of said criminal charges no member of the uniformed force shall be suspended without pay for more than thirty days while awaiting disposition of departmental charges against such member. If the member is found not guilty of the departmental charges such member shall be paid full back pay for the period he or she had been suspended while awaiting disposition of the departmental charges against such member. In the event an award of back pay is made pursuant to this section, the amount of any salary or income earned by the member of the uniformed force during the period of suspension shall be deducted from the award.
