BY RAHN ADAMS '
A Shallotte Point man and <
Brunswick County have settled a 1
federal lawsuit that claimed four
sheriff's deputies assaulted the man
in his home and falsely imprisoned
him in 1986, according to attorneys
for both sides. '
The suit was filed March 22 in U.S. 1
District Court in Wilmington by
Robert Hugh Hewson. Defendants in
the suit were Sheriff John C. Davis, '
Chief Deputy John Marlow and the 1
four deputies?Gregory Wood, Roger i
Harrington, Donald Gates and Carl t
Pearson. <
Clegg refused to comment Monday
on the terms of the settlement which 1
he said was reached Dec. 1. <
However, he noted that no county '
money was involved because "it was i
an insured matter." Hewson had
sought at least $10,000 in compen- ^
satory damages and at least $10,000 >
in punitive damages. 1
Hewson's attorney, Davey Stanley 1
of Shallotte, confirmed Tuesday that ?
a monetary settlement was reached, 1
but that "part of the settlement <
agreement was that the amount
would not be revealed." (
Describing the terms as "satisfac- i
tory," Clegg said he was pleased that <
the suit was dismissed as a result of '
the settlement, even though he had '

Stanley said Tuesday he was si
that as a result of the settleme
Hewson feels "somewl
vindicated" in his claim that his c
stitutional rights were violated by I
unlawful arrest.
The suit stemmed from a June
1986, incident at Hewson's Shallo
