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


Latest version.
  • 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.
