Brothers trial reset

The trial for an Iowa City man suing Brothers Bar & Grill has been reset, according to court documents.

Jordan Neve said he was forcibly removed from the downtown bar in June 2007 for no apparent reason. Employees allegedly used excessive force and intentionally harmed Neve, according to the documents. He reportedly sustained a number of injuries.

In February, Neve’s attorney, who was diagnosed with pneumonia, asked for a new trial date and cited his illness as the reason for the rescheduling. The trial is now set to begin on June 6 with a pretrial conference scheduled for May 27.
