Federal judge allows falsely imprisoned Springfield man's lawsuit against police to advance

Check out this article on masslive.com about our client Charles Wilhite, whose case was heard in federal court today. This case involves two Springfield police officers, Anthony Pioggia and Steven Tatro, threatening and coercing witnesses in order to falsely convict Charles. (Learn more about the case here.) The officers filed a Motion for Summary Judgment, which the judge denied after today’s hearing. The judge called the officers’ legal arguments “unpersuasive.” Read our response to their motion here. The case will now proceed to mediation or trial.
