The Town of Norman Wells, N.W.T., will be back in court in March, calling on a judge to toss out a $2.57 million defamation suit filed against it by a former senior administrative officer (SAO).
In the lawsuit she filled in May, Catherine Mallon alleges the town, the current SAO, a former SAO and mayor Frank Pope made harmful public statements about her that have left her essentially unemployable.
