Borough Edgeworth v. Braden Blosser Braden

OPINION BY JUDGE SMITH FILED: March 6, 1996 These consolidated appeals are brought by the Borough of Edgeworth (Borough) and Braden Blosser from orders of the Court of Common Pleas of Allegheny County denying both their appeals from the decision of the Civil Service Commission of the Borough (Commission) in regard to Blosser's appeal from the action of the Borough Council in terminating his employment as a Borough police officer. The Commission concluded, following a hearing, that one but not both of the charges against Blosser had been sustained, and it modified the discipline imposed from a discharge to a suspension from the date of Blosser's original termination until the date of the decision, roughly six months.
