individual's position on the hiring list. If officers are hired on the same date, but <br /> from a banded list or from different lists, seniority will be determined in the <br /> following manner: <br /> a. Lateral Officers will have seniority over academy graduate officers and <br /> entry-level officers. If more than one lateral officer is hired on the same <br /> date, seniority will be determined by the officer's tenure as a peace officer. <br /> b. Academy graduate officers will have seniority over entry-level officers. <br /> c. If seniority cannot be determined in any other manner, seniority will be <br /> determined by the drawing of names. <br /> 3. If any person holding a rank higher than officer is returned to the rank of officer, <br /> either voluntarily or following a disciplinary action, that individual's seniority <br /> will be based on his/her original date of hire. <br /> 4. If any person holding a rank higher than sergeant is returned to the rank of <br /> sergeant, either voluntarily or following a disciplinary action, that individual's <br /> seniority will be based on his/her original date of promotion to sergeant. <br /> 5. Should an officer or sergeant be re-instated following termination, due to the <br /> decision of an arbitrator or a court, the individual's seniority will be determined as <br /> if the individual had not been terminated. <br /> 6. Should an officer's or sergeant's employment be terminated and the individual <br /> later re-hired, seniority will be based solely upon the date of re-hire. <br /> Process <br /> 1.
