Police Retirement System of Kansas City, Missouri Missouri Cases

Heather Bass, a former police officer, and the Police Retirement System of Kansas City (PRSKC) cross-appealed a circuit court's summary judgment regarding the calculation of an offset to Bass's duty-related disability pension benefits due to her worker's compensation award. Bass challenged the inclusion of investment income in the offset, the denial of her motion to amend her petition, the mortality assumptions used for life expectancy, and the denial of prejudgment interest. PRSKC challenged the exclusion of attorney's fees and costs from the offset calculation. The appellate court affirmed the trial court's judgment in its entirety.
