A Chandler City Council member — who took the uncommon step last year of suing the government where she’s part of its elected governing body — has seen some recent correspondence filings in the case.
Jane Poston is listed as both one of the lead plaintiffs and is one of several of the defendants as she takes Chandler’s government to court in a defamation case about whether appointed city leaders did enough in dealing with rumors about Poston.
In order to resolve and discourage recurrence of a difficult situation, Poston and her company, J2 Media, filed a lawsuit in September in Maricopa County Superior Court. The defendants include the Council, former Chandler Police Chief Sean Duggan, along with the city of Chandler, the Chandler City Council as a group, all seven council members listed individually, City Manager Josh Wright and Assistant Police Chief Dave Ramer.
