VTDigger Reports On Docket Clerk Low Pay & Contract Negotiations

From story (there’s more where this came from)…

"James Crucitti, the presiding court judge at Chittenden Superior Court, says the salaries for personnel in the clerk’s office are ‘unfairly low.’ The judiciary can continue its embarrassing pattern of suppressing pay for its lowest paid employees and run the risk of degrading the Judiciary’s service to Vermont or it can recognize the very difficult responsibilities of these positions and pay a fair wage."

Judiciary Tries To Shut Down Fact-Finding Process. Tells Judge Employees’ Testimony “Not Worthy”

VSEA’s Judiciary Bargaining Team sent a blast to Unit members today, which included the following:

"On Friday, the Judiciary’s lawyer sent a letter asking the Fact Finder to shut down the process unilaterally, over our objection, before he hears testimony from your bargaining team. The Judiciary stated that your bargaining team members’ testimony “is not worthy of the additional expense and time.”

VSEA has objected in the strongest terms to their effort to silence your elected leaders."
