American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees, Council 31, Charging Party and City of Clinton (Dr. John Warner Hospital), Respondent, 29 PERI 167, No. S-CA-11-148 (ILBR, State Panel, Apr. 10, 2013)(hereinafter 29 PERI 167). On review, the Hospital argues the grievance settlement agreement contained terms that were disputed and ambiguous, and the proper forum for determining whether a contractual breach occurred was in the circuit court pursuant to section 16 of the Act (5 ILCS 315/16 (West 2010)). It also contends the Board's decision is against public policy. | | | | Date Created: | 04 18 2014 | | | | Agency ID: | Case No. S-CA-11-148; No. 4-13-0304 | | | | ISL ID: | 000000050390 Original UID: 171326 FIRST WORD: Decisions | |
