Description
The City of Waco appeals a summary judgment rendered in Larry Kelleys favor which affirmed the decision of an independent hearing examiner: (1) reducing Kelleys indefinite suspension as a police officer to a 180-day temporary suspension; (2) reinstating Kelley at the rank of sergeant; and (3) determining that Kelley "should be made whole subject to the normal principles of mitigation." The district court also awarded attorneys fees to Kelley. The City contends in four issues that: (1) the hearing examiner exceeded his jurisdiction by reducing Kelleys suspension after finding the charges true; (2) the hearing examiner exceeded his jurisdiction by demoting Kelley to the rank of sergeant; (3) the hearing examiner exceeded his jurisdiction by awarding back pay and benefits to Kelley; and (4) the district court erred by awarding attorneys fees to Kelley. Kelley contends in a cross-issue that the court erred by denying his appeal of the hearing examiners refusal to dismiss the indefinite suspension because he was indefinitely suspended before he was convicted of the offense which was the basis for the suspension.
