CHICAGO (AP) — Chicago’s law department is examining more than three dozen open cases handled by a former top attorney who was accused this week by a federal judge of hiding evidence in a fatal police shooting.

Department spokesman Bill McCaffrey says Jordan Marsh was supervising or was the lead attorney on 37 open police misconduct cases on Monday when he quit hours after the judge tossed out a jury’s finding in a civil lawsuit. The judge harshly criticized Marsh in a scathing opinion.

McCaffrey says there are no plans to examine closed cases that Marsh worked on since he joined the office in late 1997.

The law department represents the city in lawsuits brought against the Police Department. U.S. District Judge Edmond Chang’s opinion dealt with Marsh’s work on a lawsuit brought against the city by the family of a black man fatally shot by police in 2011.
