Alvin Kennedy and Eliezer Feliciano v. the Anchorage Police & Fire Retirement System; the Board of Trustees…

Summary

The court affirmed the denial of the officers’ request to increase their retirement benefits based on damages for lost wages and benefits. It held that retroactive compensation must be considered under the municipal code but remains subject to the prohibition against earning service credits while receiving retirement benefits, so the award did not change either officer’s pension calculation. The court also affirmed the attorney’s fee award because the superior court did not abuse its discretion.
