LAWSUIT AGAINST RICHMOND, FOUNTAIN CITY DROPPED

(Richmond, IN)--A lawsuit against both the city of Richmond and the town of Fountain City was dismissed this week.  It was filed last year by Matthew Meyers of Lynn.  Meyers claimed in the lawsuit that potholes and other debris on Round Barn Road caused him to lose control of his motorcycle and crash last summer.  Meyers was seeking unspecified damages for both physical and emotional trauma.  The lawsuit was dismissed this week because the accident occurred neither inside the city limits of either Richmond or Fountain City.
