Synopsis
|
Grievants are employed by Respondent in various classifications at William R. Sharpe, Jr. Hospital. Grievants alleged they had not received back pay that had been awarded to them in a previous level one decision. Respondent filed a motion to dismiss alleging mootness, among other arguments, as Grievants had received their back pay in July 2016. Grievants failed to respond to the motion to dismiss and dispute this assertion, despite notice and opportunity to be heard and the instruction that the grievance may be dismissed if Grievants did not respond. Respondent has proved the grievance is moot and must be dismissed. Accordingly, the grievance is dismissed.
