(Chicago Sun Times) — The Denver attorney hired by Mayor Daley to oversee city hiring — only to be stripped of that responsibility and resign — is embroiled in a new dispute with City Hall. This time, it’s over unemployment compensation. Anthony Boswell filed for unemployment last month to obtain weekly benefits of $534 for 26 weeks, based on his $161,856-a-year salary. The Daley administration challenged the award through Cambridge Inc., the outside contractor hired to process jobless claims. Since the city is self-insured for unemployment claims, taxpayers would be liable for the benefits.
