Text: The PRS trustees certified to E & A that the City's payable amount for fiscal year 2003-2004 was $9,575,892. E & A's proposed budget allocated $4,115,600 as the City's contribution to the PRS, and that amount was adopted by the Board of Aldermen. The PRS trustees then sued the City, seeking declaratory and injunctive relief and damages, alleging that the City was required by section 86.344 to pay the amount certified. [3] The parties all moved for summary judgment. The trial court found in the PRS's favor, holding that the City was required to pay the entire amount certified. It also concluded that the City lacked standing to assert its Hancock Amendment argument, and rejected its other arguments. The City appeals.
