I don't know if the Helium Balloon Council ever filed suit against him or not. In the 1980s, the city named five fire chiefs in six years and threatened to arrest one chief if he came back to the station. Virtually every city agency and office has come under scrutiny at one time or another for what has always been treated by the justice system as just high jinks. Leggiere says he did nothing wrong, and until we find out what the grand jury has to say about that, that's how it stands. Keep in mind, though, that grand juries in this neck of the woods have a long history of writing reports that are blistering diatribes about everything from criminal behavior to bad manners, and then ending with only a request that prosecutors continue to monitor the situation.
