Eight legal actions seek to overturn furloughs

Local 1000 has filed eight separate legal cases challenging the governor's furlough scheme and responded to a proposed consolidation in the Supreme Court.

Supreme Court Rejects Consolidation
The Governor filed a motion to consolidate the furlough cases (except SCIF) in the Supreme Court. While Local 1000 agreed the matter was of vital importance and needed a prompt resolution, the Supreme Court rejected consolidation.
