In a notice of intent to file a claim against the city of Statesboro, former City Manager Frank Parker asked for more than $250,000 in damages and asserted that he was protected by the state Whistleblower Act for statements that led to his June 24 firing. However, no lawsuit has been filed at this point, and Parker’s lawyer, Daniel Snipes of Statesboro, said Friday that if a formal complaint is filed it will not specify a dollar amount. “If Frank decides that he wants to file a lawsuit, it will just say ‘in an amount to be proven at the time of trial,’” Snipes said, explaining that a more specific demand was required for the type of notice he sent the city July 22 than would be included in the actual complaint.
