A recent court decision by the Federal Court of Claims in Philadelphia has
defined persons between 14 and 18 enrolled in PA's apprentice or junior
(16-18) firefighter programs to be public safety officers for purposes of
the PSODB laws. Our liability insurance covers juniors and we are working on
a SOG to further define their role in the organization.



Has this decision affected any other organization? Do you include minors or
exclude minors from membership? We don't have any yet but have received
several inquiries that we put off until the insurance company responded.
