Teacher groups call on Schuette not to appeal court ruling on interest payments | Michigan Radio

Teachers unions are calling on Governor Snyder and Attorney General Bill Schuette not to appeal a ruling by the Court of Claims last week. The court said that school employees are entitled to additional interest payments on a portion of their salaries withheld to pay down retiree health care costs. The ruling is the culmination of an eight year dispute between school employees and the state over a 2010 law allowing the state to withhold 3 percent of their salaries to pay down retiree health care costs.
