I Got the News

This just in from Joe DeNicola, SEIU president:

Sisters & Brothers,

Judge Kantor, Multnomah County Circuit Court, has issued opinions in both the Arken and Robinson cases. He has ruled in our favor in both cases and has enjoined PERS from additional collection efforts
with regard to PERS retirees. Additional analysis from our attorney. Greg Hartman, will be forthcoming soon.

I am seeking independent verification, but it appears that stage one in the long waiting game may be over.

P.S. 11:50 a.m. Judge Kantor's office confirms that the decisions were filed this morning. I will have copies of both rulings by FAX later this afternoon and will try to have them posted by tomorrow.

Here is a copy of the decision.
