Daily Caller: IAFF (International Association of Firefighters) local chapter 825 is suing its union, UPFFA (Uniformed Professional Firefighters Association of Connecticut), for almost $100,000 for misappropriation of dues.
Local 825 alleges the UPFFA said the group owes them over $50,000, according to court documents The Daily Caller News Foundation obtained. They’re challenging this claim and seeking $96,000 in restitution.
“IAFF Local 825’s executive board unanimously voted to leave the UPFFA two years ago. But the UPFFA has charged them dues since then,” chapter lawyer Nathan McGrath told The DCNF in an email. “They even put Local 825 into collections. The UPFFA is illegally trying to extract money from local firefighters [who] they do not owe.” read more
