In a stunning turn of events in a case that was seemingly headed to the discovery process, Judge Michael R. Barret dismissed Jose “Chille” DeCastro’s lawsuit against defendants Major Chapman, Jane Doe and Lawrence County, Ohio, for failure to state a claim and granted the motion for judgment on the pleadings to defendants Chance Blankenship, Robert Fouch, Evan McKnight, Brad Spoljaric, Pam Wagner, and the City of Ironton.
