Former police chief sues Emmitsburg in $700K breach case
Former Emmitsburg police chief Maurice Kerr files a five count suit in Frederick County Circuit Court alleging breach of contract and wrongful dismissal after undertaking an investigation into suspected irregularities. He claims board hostility over involving a state prosecutor and seeks $400,153 in compensatory damages and $300,000 in punitive damages. Kerr contends his one year contract was treated as a career position and intended to continue unless performance failed. He began work Jan 2, 1981 and was reappointed May 4, 1981 amid pressure over the inquiry into town finances.
