Synopsis Grievants contest their exclusion from pay increases received by other employees of Respondent at Mildred Mitchell-Bateman Hospital with whom they feel they are similarly situated. These pay increases were received either due to the enactment of a particular statute or under a Circuit Court settlement agreement and Order in an ongoing lawsuit. The statute specifically exempts the implementation of its pay increase from the grievance process. The Grievance Board lacks jurisdiction to enforce a Circuit Court settlement agreement or Order. Accordingly, Respondent’s Motion to Dismiss is GRANTED.
