To Members of River City FOP 614,

Attached to this is a Legal Defense Claim Form.  It is important you read below.  It is part of a letter sent from the Benefit Administrator of the FOP Legal Defense Plan.   ...a claim MUST be submitted within 30 days from the date the officer is notified of an investigation.  THE FOP BOARD REQUIRES CLAIMS TO BE FILED WITHIN THAT TIMEFRAME TO BE VALID. 

As soon as the officer gets word in any way that they are being investigated, a claim should be made.  It does not matter if nothing comes of the investigation.  I have

STRONGLY URGED the Lodges / Union reps to PLEASE direct members to contact THIS OFFICE for any information regarding claims procedures or what is and what is not covered.  It is my job and that is what I am here for ---to answer questions and handle issues BEFORE the guidelines become neglected.  When the guidelines are not properly followed, the Plan cannot assist the members to the full capacity and the attorneys fees will not be reimbursed by the Plan.
