Fairfax Community Hospital employees haven’t received a paycheck in four months. The city of Fairfax had filed a petition in North Carolina Bankruptcy Court to get that pay.
On Tuesday, a trustee granted the petition to pay some of its employees for four weeks of back pay. There may be limitations on how much employees can be paid while the case is still in bankruptcy court. It is also not clear who will be paying the employees. A few months back, it was reported that Osage County District Court granted the city of Fairfax ownership of the hospital. According to the News on 6, there will be a hearing in North Carolina on Thursday to appoint an independent company to run the hospital while the case is in bankruptcy court. The city of Fairfax believes it will be an Oklahoma-based company, but this has not been decided yet. Comments are closed.
