United States Seventh Circuit
RUSSELL v. CITY OF MILWAUKEE, 02-2371
The filing of a Suggestion of Death triggered the 90-day requirement for filing of substitution of parties by representatives of a deceased city firefighter, thus dismissal with prejudice is affirmed in a 42 U.S.C. section 1983 claim arising from termination of disability benefits.
