The city of Jackson learned Monday that it likely will have to defend yet another lawsuit arising from the alleged actions of Jackson Mayor Frank Melton this year.Previous Melton tracking here.
The lawyer for Sandra Moore Johnson, owner of the Upper Level Sports Bar and Grill, and her son, Tonarri Moore, notified the city that they intend to sue for Moore's alleged wrongful arrest and beating on Aug. 27. Moore has said he was beaten while in handcuffs by young men traveling with Melton in the Police Department's Mobile Command Unit early that morning.
The city was notified several days ago that a lawsuit was going to be filed over the alleged involvement of Melton and his entourage in the heavy damage done to a duplex on Ridgeway Street on Aug. 26, which occurred just hours before the Upper Level incident.
In June, Melton, the city and the Police Department were told they would be sued over the allegation that Melton made a threat against family members of Albert "Batman" Donelson in April.
The notice of a claim on Monday names the city, Melton; his two bodyguards, police Detectives Marcus Wright and Michael Recio; Police Chief Shirlene Anderson; and 10 unnamed police officers and private citizens as defendants.
