COURT ORDERS CPD TO HIRE DECORATED VETERAN
The Superintendent of CPD challenged the Human Resources Board's decision to reinstate the candidacy of a decorated military veteran who was disqualified from the hiring process. The Chancery Court of Cook County ruled that the CPD did not have a valid reason to argue that the HR Board erred when it reinstated the candidacy of the military veteran. The Court ordered that the candidate be immediately restored to the list and placed in the next training class for the CPD. 2014 CH 06638
