Attorney Gary Nolan represented the Carver Police Union/NEPBA in this arbitration victory to obtain seniority rights for a group of officers with prior full time police experience. In Carver, officers who transferred laterally from other civil service departments were granted wage seniority dating back to their date of hire with their original department. Meanwhile, the seniority (for pay purposes) of officers with full time experience in non-civil service departments began running with their date of hire in Carver. The union overcame many years of past practice to win this case, and was able to correct this inequity for a group of dedicated police officers.
