Town of Londonderry Court Complaint"},"content":{"rendered":"\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Former Londonderry Town Manager Shaun Mulholland has filed a lawsuit against the Town of Londonderry following his termination on September 21, 2026. Mulholland argues that his dismissal was unlawful because the Town Council failed to secure the four required votes for his removal, ignored mandatory notice and hearing protocols, and improperly bypassed procedural rules when objections were raised. The complaint asserts that these actions violated his employment contract, constitutional due process rights, and the Londonderry Town Charter, which is not preempted by state law. Consequently, Mulholland is seeking a declaratory judgment to invalidate his termination, alongside damages for breach of contract and violations of 42 U.S.C. \u00a7 1983.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div data-wp-interactive=\"core\/file\" class=\"wp-block-file\"><object data-wp-bind--hidden=\"!state.hasPdfPreview\" hidden class=\"wp-block-file__embed\" data=\"https:\/\/townunderground.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/2026-10-14-Mulholland-Court-Filing.pdf\" type=\"application\/pdf\" style=\"width:100%;height:600px\" aria-label=\"Embed of 2026-10-14 Mulholland Court Filing.\"><\/object><a id=\"wp-block-file--media-3485b96a-9a55-413c-8edd-96caa6de59e7\" href=\"https:\/\/townunderground.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/2026-10-14-Mulholland-Court-Filing.pdf\">2026-10-14 Mulholland Court Filing<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/townunderground.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/2026-10-14-Mulholland-Court-Filing.pdf\" class=\"wp-block-file__button wp-element-button\" download aria-describedby=\"wp-block-file--media-3485b96a-9a55-413c-8edd-96caa6de59e7\">Download<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Related Posts:<\/strong><br><a href=\"https:\/\/townunderground.com\/?page_id=12869\">Town Manager Firing Information Page<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Former Londonderry Town Manager Shaun Mulholland has filed a lawsuit against the Town of Londonderry following his termination on September 21, 2026.
