A Jackson businessman is seeking a default judgment in federal court against Mayor Frank Melton in connection with Melton’s tenure as director of the Mississippi Bureau of Narcotics.
The lawsuit from Ron Christmon is one of several lawsuits pending in both state and federal courts naming Melton as a defendant.
