Legal Question in Constitutional Law in Illinois

14th amendment law suite
I'm the animal control officer for a mid-sized city. i'm being sued for 10k regarding a dog fighting case I handled. A person no involved in the initial criminal matter--is now alledging I violated his 14th amendment when the court ordered his dog put down. this occured after the suspect who was in possesion of the dog was found guilty. all by court order. the person suing me never proved ownership of the dog-he simply made one phone call to the PD two years ago. he now wan't money for lost wages in dog breeding-which was always for the purpose of dog fighting. can i counter suit? the attorney representing the plaintiff has no grounds and is trying to destroy me professionaly and personnaly.

You should be discussing this with the city attorney.
