A local couple that was struck by 1955 Chevy Bel Air after it flipped during a burnout during the 2018 Neon Nights cruise downtown The Dalles has settled a lawsuit with the City of The Dalles and The Dalles Main Street Program.

The passage of The Sanctuary Promise Act (HB 3265) which prohibits public and private ICE detention contracts throughout the state has rendered the lawsuit against NORCOR moot.

Eric Nisley is suing for nearly $3 million in damages. He said his reputation had been tarnished by his removal from the Wasco County DA’s office following a disciplinary 60-day suspension of his license to practice law. The Oregon State bar found that he had lied to investigators no less than six times.
