well city finally responded and well it was full of lies and b.s . my final brief is going in and judge will make up his mind supposedly wihin the next 60 days. it could be more it could be less.
Blondie, Not sure exactly what your lawsuit is about, but reading through your posts, it appears that maybe you received a bad evaluation that placed you on performance monitoring??? If so, I'm sure you are aware of the "1 in 3 rule". Civil service law DOES allow the department to pass over people.....although I must admit, in all my years I've never seen it actually done. Lawyers have told me, in an unrelated matter, that the 1 in 3 rule is nearly impossible to fight and win. In any event, good luck. -Free
well not to get into to much detail ,ive never had a bad eval just a pos c.o about 5 years ago . well i did have an unauthorized sheld pin on my shield backing at roll call . well the city did pull the 1 in 3 rule out of there pocket . although i am not aware of anyone who has challenged it and further still, every situation is unique and mine is . the 1 in 3 rule the way its written states not that the city can promote who they want with impunity. its states that they can skip 2 canidates and promote the 3rd. it doesnt mean you can promote a whole list ,minus 1 person . thats an excuse and i believe given my circumstances and its clearly obvious and exposes the coruption that exists at the top when they want to single someone out. Again ive found tons of articles from various unions claiming that this rule is biased corrupt, favors neopitism, and has been used to single people out someone may not like and screw them over. Im hoping that the judge that is gonna have this case, see's how abused the rule is and once and for all kill the rule once and for all. past case law ive seen have won and some cases promoted (other unions) and other cases financialy compensated and in the words of the courts "made whole again" . should the judge rule the case has merit to proceed im pretty sure the offer will role in from the city. like ive said in the event something happens ill propably also get an offer plus a silence claus .so if i dont say much else youll understand. p.s just for the record im not looking to be a problem child and get off taking on the system or any other negative stigmatism. ill say this in my defense if i was i would have gone to a lawyer teh second i was skiped on jan 2 2008 . instead of when the list was killed. oh and just a little funny note the city stated that i cant be promoted because 2 listes cant exist at the same time. which the city did already for both the 2007 and 2008 test. so they also set a precedent for doing it. so we will see what happens.

I think it's great what your doing. It takes time and courage to do what your doing and in the end I'm sure this process will help to change (even if just a little bit) the way this job does things. Keep going show no fear and you will win in the end !
thanks bro its lonley being out on the ledge by myself . what i do i do for the sake of future cops. it aint cheap :(.with 3 kids going to college i see alot of atlas in my future lolololol.
blondie i wish you the best of luck...but i just don't understand. Why you?? Why would the city just arbirtrarily choose not to promote you? As an outside observer it seems like there must be WAY more to the story than you are revealing here. Why is there such a beef with you? Just curious.
well to be honest i obviously cant go into details on a public forum. why me is a question ive been asking myself over and over and over again. the final conclusion that i can take from this is that the city never forgives nor forgets and once you do one thing that may deviate from the norm your labeled for life and you can save the president from assasination and youll still be remembered as the guy who was playing pool in the pct basement on an extended meal . last i heard a rumor that i pissed of someone that kelly knows . personally there are 3 people in my command with my same last name , maybe its mistakin identity i dont know. im really not that bad a guy all who know me (not including the 1pp puzzle palace chiefs) will tell you the same thing to my face and more importantly behind my back. yeah ive had a few bumps in the road . try being a cop in brooklyn north in the crack days of the early 90's and not have a bump or two. ive never beatin my wife,convicted of dwi . for some reason 1pp has labeled me as some sorta boss fighter (yeah go figure) liabilty or something . another thing was that at the begining of this 3 ring circus, i was never told that the most important thing they look at is your activity while they have you out and awaiting to be reinterviewed. all i was told by every supervisor was keep your nose clean dont get ccrb's cd ,etc .never anywhere did activity get mentioned . my activity was good, good enough to get me a detail in the command if i wanted it. apparently 20 tags and 1 a month wasnt good enough for them . at least thats what there saying now at the end of it all . personally if i had 100 tags and 10 collars a month they would have found another reason to hold me up.

Well all the briefs are in and now its in the hands of the judge . The waiting continues, my case is solid and if my judge is a fair minded man i should get at the minimum a trial . Im hoping the judge rules in my favor right of the bat and orders both sides in for a settlement meeting. There is a good chance ill be having to sign a shut my mouth agrement at that point . So there is a good chance this could be one of the last posts in reguards. There talking about the possibility of if they cant promote me to sgt . As a "POSSIBLE" offer on the table is 2nd grade detective. I still personally feel even with that offer i wont be happy . So ill propably only take it if there is no other option. I might go with a money offer and stay a cop for my last few years . Who knows well see in the coming weeks or months. The judge has upto 60 days, but almost no judge does it that fast. I guess the waiting begins again . i hear there is another test scheduled for sept of next year ? I propably wont even bother persoanlly ill have 16 1/2 on the day of the exam and 17 1/2 or so when the list comes out . Then to get run over the coals again and put in another holding pattern ill see what mood im in when the test is announced. At any rate those are issues for another day.
thanks for asking nycop80 not much more then post number 108. currently in a holding pattern awaiting the judges decision. Im really hoping for a fair judge and so far its looking that way but time will tell.
signmy28 sour grapes ? WHAT THE F&%K would you know ! 2 sides to every story yes and my side is the correct one . i wouldnt burden a weisel like you with details. thanks drunk247 and bkfinest1 ,people with time on knows this job can be very viscious for no reason at all .
No blondie..do tell me your plight...of how tough you have had it since the exam you are suing over is now expired and they are using the 2008 exam list...
if u would like you can even PM me with the details of your "lawsuit'..im all ears
yeah that attitude and behavior clearly shows you have no business being a boss..
additionally, just the fact that you would cry to everyone on here about your "plight" and how "the job screwed you" just shows you are aloser with some legal aid, wannabe paralegal telling you ..."Yeah blondie you got a really really great case"
Why don't you just keep your little lawsuit to yourself and your bloodsucking lawyer..no one wants to hear your whining about how the job screwed you over..th e job screws everyone over..get over yourself.
then i apologize...again if i had a lawsuit pending aginst the City, i wouldnt be posting on here some of the things that Blondie posted... the City is evil, vindictive and loves to play dirty, especially with cops...
so if i understand what your saying is this ? hey ^%^^ goodluck with your lawsuit ! and you might wanna keep what you write on the down low because the city might use what ever it has to its advantage ? is that about right ? funny i never got that from what youve said. i guess its just me then.
yeah 7 1/2 years ago . what does that mean monitoring ? all it means is some jackoff c.o who had an ax to grind makes up a b.s 49 sends it off to emd and thats all it takes .you dont have to do anything . oh well yeah there was my unauthorized flag on my shield backing, oh and lets not forget the unshined shoes and forgetting to hand in my radio at eot . yep those are my sins.
Im not going to go into details, but I know someone who went in front of the 3 wise men down at the puzzle palace, and got dicked around until they finally made him after 6 months. Thats why i layed low until i got made, these *******s our out to get you...
However, good luck there blondie...keep us updated
well thanks 10-98 there gripe was that in there opinion i didnt take responsibilty for my actions . when i in fact i did, but i guess i didnt grovel enough .
what exactly is causing you such amusement ? --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
NEVER MIND MY AMUSEMENT! Take some responsibility for your pitiful actions. Being a supervisor carry's much responsibilities. You, my son, have shown that you are incapable of handling these type of responsibilities. Therefore, your request to be a supervisor has been DENIED. Anyhow, let me get back to my amusement.... LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHA LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL HAHAHAH LOLOLOLOLOOL BHAAAAAAAA HAHAHAHAHA LOLOL HAHAHALOL OLOL HAHAH ROTFLLLLLLL HAHAHA LOLOLLLOLOL CATCHING MY BREATH LOLOLOLOLO HAHAHAHA LOLOLOLOLOL HAHAHAHAHA ROTFL LOLOLOLL HAHAHAAH COUGH COUGH LOLLOLOL HAHAHAH LOLOLOOLOLOLOL
