In Nebraska, Omaha’s police union has filed a lawsuit against the City of Omaha, arguing that the city has improperly attempted to change its contract with the association. The complaint filed this week in Douglas County District Court is related to the contract that expired in December. The Omaha Police Officers Association says a clause in that contract states that if the city and the union had not agreed to changes — or to a new contract — by April, the old contract would remain in effect through the end of 2014. The union argues that the city attempted to move forward with some changes, violating the contract. Mayor Jean Stothert, in a press release, called the union’s position “frivolous,” because negotiations had already begun.
