Publisher Description
The City of Olympia suspended one of its police officers for 1 day without pay, purportedly for cause. The Olympia Police Guild asserted a grievance under its collective bargaining agreement with the City, challenging whether the City had cause for the discipline. When the City failed to respond, the Guild invoked arbitration proceedings under the grievance procedure and, when the City still did not respond, sued for specific performance to compel arbitration. It now appeals summary judgment dismissing its action.
