The Police Officers Association of Michigan, representing Branch County Sheriff deputies, and Branch County Commissioners are at odds over a contract dispute that went to arbitration last year.
Commissioners heard a grievance filed by deputies Carl Sevidal and Union President Steve Mcmanamey who did not receive retroactive pay raises awarded to other road patrol deputies. Both are usually assigned to courthouse duties.
Both are licensed police officers with state MCOLES certification. County attorney Bonnie Toskey, who lost the arbitration to the union, said that does not matter. She said there are court cases which require the covered officers “to engage daily to enforce general laws” and they do not qualify because “of the nature of their job assignments.”
