In 2013, a jury awarded former city employee Ann Butcher zero damages in a lawsuit against the city of Mason City. She had been seeking about $150,000 plus attorney’s fees.
Numerous witnesses, including high-ranking city employees, were called to testify in the case.
Butcher had claimed discrimination from city officials in getting passed over for job promotions.
In July, the Supreme Court denied further review of Butcher v. City of Mason City.
