The John Breckinridge Castleman monument was removed from Cherokee Triangle without warning on Monday, June 8.
The thrust of the case is not whether the statue of Castleman riding a horse, dressed in civilian clothes served as a symbol of "racist or bigoted ideology,” as former Mayor Greg Fischer has said, but whether the city followed due process in removing it.
