Dallas Fire Department Sues Former Firefighter for $127,000 in Unintended Payments
The Dallas Fire Department is suing former firefighter Ivan Gonzales for $127,441 in payments he received after resigning in 2023. The city claims the payments continued for 20 months due to an administrative error, and it is seeking the return of the funds plus interest. The error occurred because Gonzales remained on his supervisor's payroll roster and updated his banking information after leaving the state.
