WHITE RIVER JUNCTION — A former solid waste supervisor in Hartford who claimed his boss accused him of trying to buy marijuana at work and then unfairly fired him has settled with the town for $9,000, according to court documents.
In an order last week, U.S. District Court Judge Kevin Doyle agreed to dismiss the lawsuit filed last year by former town employee Bob Vahey against Hartford after the parties reached an agreement out of court. The lawsuit was dismissed with prejudice, meaning Vahey cannot file another lawsuit with the same complaints against the town in the future.
