On Friday, the Kentucky Court of Appeals upheld a Jefferson Circuit Court ruling that says Louisville violated the firefighters' contract by not including incentive and longevity pay in calculations for overtime pay. The ruling entitles more than 800 firefighters to pay going back 15 years from when the claim was filed in 2000. The ruling could cost the city $7.6 million plus interest. And that comes on top of an additional $19.7 million owed firefighters in another overtime lawsuit.
