Two lawsuits brought against the Town of Bourne and former Bourne fire chief Norman P. Sylvester have been dismissed in US District Court for Massachusetts in Boston.
The lawsuits alleged a violation of a former firefighterâs constitutional right to freedom of religion, and violation of state law for refusing payment benefits for work-related mental anguish.
The dismissals were part of a decision handed down by Chief Judge F. Dennis Saylor IV on June 28. Both the Town of Bourne and Chief Sylvester requested summary judgments as opposed to jury trials, meaning the presiding judge decides a case based on facts presented by the two sides.
