Section 4A:2-1.5 - Remedies

(a) Seniority credit may be awarded in any successful appeal.

(b) Back pay, benefits and counsel fees may be awarded in disciplinary appeals and where a layoff action has been in bad faith. See 4A:2-2.1 0. In all other appeals, such relief may be granted where the appointing authority has unreasonably failed or delayed to carry out an order of the Civil Service Commission or where the Commission finds sufficient cause based on the particular case. A finding of sufficient cause may be made where the employee demonstrates that the appointing authority took adverse action against the employee in bad faith or with invidious motivation.
