75 Pa. Commw. 40 | Pa. Commw. Ct. | 1983
Opinion by
The Appalachia Intermediate Unit No. 8 (Unit) and Pennsylvania State Education Association (Association) along with the Pennsylvania School Service Personnel/PSEA (PSEA) have filed cross appeals from a majority decision of the Court of Common Pleas of Cambria County sitting en banc which rendered absolute a decree nisi (1) affirming an arbitrator’s award of certain salary payments to Unit teachers represented by the Association and Unit teacher’s aides represented by the PSEA and (2) reversing an arbitrator’s award of interest on these payments. We affirm.
Before this Court, the Unit once again alleges, as it alleged below, (1) that the grievances submitted to the arbitrator were not filed in a timely manner and (2) that the arbitrator’s decision failed to draw its essence from the collective bargaining agreement.
Order
Now, June 10, 1983, the Order of the Court of Common Pleas of Cambria County dated February 11, 1982 and docketed at No. 1980-3741, is affirmed.
In its brief to this Court the Unit also raises the issue of whether the arbitrator’s award should be reversed because of the Unit’s alleged inability to pay the salary award. Since this issue was not raised below, however, we will not address it here. Pa. B.A.P, 302.
