York City woman drops civil-rights lawsuit against township police, Walmart
Updated Feb 17, 2021;
A York City woman who sued Springettsbury Township, seven of its police officers and Walmart has voluntarily dropped her lawsuit, federal court records show.
Latoya Batty, 43, withdrew the federal civil-rights lawsuit on Feb. 9 with prejudice, records state. “With prejudice” means she cannot refile the lawsuit.
On Wednesday, Springettsbury Township released a statement announcing the suit withdrawal and saying the dismissal “means the case was dismissed on its merit.”
“We hold the officers of the Springettsbury Township Police Department to very high standards,” the statement reads. “We were confident from the outset of this complaint that the evidence would show the officers acted in accordance with those standards.”
