Rather than continue the slog through the federal appeals court system, Jordan Miles and his attorneys have accepted a $125,000 settlement offer from the City of Pittsburgh.
“We have accepted the city’s offer to settle,” said attorney Joel Sansone. “It is time for Jordan to move on to the next phase of his life.”
Miles, now 24, was a senior at CAPA, when he was severely injured during an arrest by three White officers, Michael Saldutte, David Sisak and Richard Ewing on Tioga Street in Homewood in January 2010.
Tim McNulty, spokesman for Mayor Bill Peduto said the settlement was reached during federal mediation.
The city offered $125,000 and the attorneys accepted it,” he said.
In 2011, Miles turned down a $180,000 offer.
