Text of Fourth Circuit Opinion Rejecting Baltimore Police and Firefighters' Federal Constitutional Challenge to Changes in Pension Benefits (PDF)
U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit 
Aug. 7, 2014 "[We] conclude that the members' rights under the Contract Clause were not impaired, because the members retained a state law remedy for breach of contract.... [U]nder Maryland law, the City is only permitted to make reasonable modifications to its pension plans and is required to provide members with a substantially similar program after such modifications." [Cherry et al. v. Mayor and City Council of Baltimore City, Nos. 13-1007, 13-1115 and 13-1116 (4th Cir. Aug. 6, 2014)] MORE >> |
