Federal Case Dismissed against Officer James Daves (D&H Client)

Memorandum Below is the court document dismissing the federal lawsuit by Eric and Aline Wright against the City of Chattanooga and CPD Officer James Daves.  Davis & Hoss represented Officer Daves and it was on our motion for summary judgment that this matter was dismissed. Many recall this case as the plaintiff's wrongly claimed that they had been treated with excessive force by Officer Daves as they traveled to Erlanger hospital.  Officer Daves maintained that he simply stopped the Wrights after observing them commit serious traffic crimes and for the purpose of finding out what they were doing and why.  The Wrights attempted to sue Officer Daves for monetary damages.  The Court found in favor of Officer Daves on all claims.
