Box 2068 Pearland, Texas 77581 Dear Mr. Gilbert: Please accept this letter on behalf of City of Pearland Police Sergeant Robert Cuna as a complaint alleging a. violation of V.T.C.S.

Following are the facts giving rise to this complaint and request for investigation. ~~ The City of Pearland appointed Glen Stanford, Chief of Police on January 1, 1974, a position he held until June l5, 1986. Prior to his appointment as chief, he served in the position of assistant chief from October, ]973, to January 1, 1974.

The appointment of Glen Stanford to the classified civil service position of captain violates certain provisions of Article 1269m, including Sections 24, 14A(1), and 8A(a}, (b), (e), (f), lba(1) and 15.
