On April 1, 2005, a pretrial detainee filed this 42 U.S.C. § 1983 action against Will County and a Will County Sheriff in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Illinois, Eastern Division. The plaintiff, represented by private counsel, asked the court for damages, claiming that the police and prosecutors of Will County had fabricated charges against him in order to extend his detention, violating his Fourth Amendment rights, and constituting malicious prosecution, false imprisonment, battery, and intentional infliction of emotional distress. Specifically, the plaintiff claimed that a Will County Sheriff had entered his cell while the plaintiff was detained here, and struck him in the face without provocation. Defendants countered with a claim against the plaintiff for aggravated battery. The plaintiff was successful in defending against the aggravated battery charge at trial, and filed this action.

The Court (Judge David Coar) entered an order on July 17, 2006 dismissing the case because the plaintiff had informed the Court that the case had been settled. We have no further information about this case.
