Consolidation of Grievances In order to avoid the necessity of processing numerous similar grievances at one time, similar grievances shall be consolidated whenever possible.
Internal Substitution A. An employee required to substitute in a lower-paying job classification shall be paid at the rate of pay established for the employee’s regular position. An employee required to substitute in a higher-paying job classification for ten (10) or more consecutive work days shall be paid at the higher rate of pay, retroactive to the first day of substitute duties. B. If a full-time teaching assistant substitute teaches for a full day, they will be compensated for that day at either their normal daily rate or at the daily exclusive substitute rate, whichever is higher. If a full-time teaching assistant works as a teaching assistant for one half (0.5) of the day and substitute teaches the other half (0.5), they will receive one half-day of Aide pay. The other half-day of substituting will be paid at either their hourly rate, or the half-day exclusive substitute rate, whichever is higher. If a part-time teaching assistant substitute teaches internally for a full day, they will be compensated for that day at either their normal hourly rate (calculated at 6.5 hours) or the daily exclusive substitute rate, whichever is higher. If a part-time teaching assistant substitute teaches one half-day (0.5), in addition to working their regularly scheduled work day, they will receive their regular daily teaching assistant pay. In addition, they will be compensated for the other half (0.5) day substitute teaching at either their regular hourly rate, or the half-day exclusive substitute rate, whichever is higher. Full and part-time teaching assistants that substitute teach for two (2) or less hours will be compensated at the rate of 20% of the then applicable substitute teacher rate, per hour, pro- rated.
Appellate Court Orders to Vacate, Reverse, or Materially Modify Judgment If the reviewing Court vacates, reverses, or modifies the Judgment in a manner that requires a material modification of this Agreement (including, but not limited to, the scope of release to be granted by Class Members), this Agreement shall be null and void. The Parties shall nevertheless expeditiously work together in good faith to address the appellate court’s concerns and to obtain Final Approval and entry of Judgment, sharing, on a 50-50 basis, any additional Administration Expenses reasonably incurred after remittitur. An appellate decision to vacate, reverse, or modify the Court’s award of the Class Representative Service Payment or any payments to Class Counsel shall not constitute a material modification of the Judgment within the meaning of this paragraph, as long as the Gross Settlement Amount remains unchanged.
