Eugene officer dispute — A Eugene police officer who threatened to sue the city after losing his job has returned to work. The president of the Eugene Police Employees Association union tells The Register-Guard that David Odom returned to duty after an arbitrator issued a decision as part of an employee grievance process. The union and the city declined to say whether there was a monetary settlement or if Odom got back pay. Odom left the department a year ago following an internal investigation that began in August 2012. According to the newspaper, the disagreement stemmed from an allegation that Odom called 911 to request a “civil stand-by” while off duty. A civil stand-by is when an officer is requested to stand by a situation to keep the peace involving a dispute.
