Posted: Updated:
SYLVANIA, AL (WAFF) -

Former Mayor of Sylvania Mitchell Dendy has filed suit against the DeKalb County Commission and the Sheriff's office.

Dendy said he is owed $100,000 in wages. He said the wages were unpaid overtime and other compensation accrued when he was fired from his position as chief jailor.

The sheriff said Dendy was fired because of sexual harassment allegations. Dendy resigned as mayor shortly after.
