Magnum Towing & Recovery, LLC v. City of Toledo

ORDER

CARR, Chief Judge.

This is a suit by a towing company against the City of Toledo. Plaintiff Magnum Towing and Recovery (Magnum) is a tower licensed to perform police-ordered tows of inoperable or abandoned cars within the city limits of Toledo.

Magnum claims the City’s procedures for police-ordered tows violate federal and state law. Magnum alleges City officials deprived it of property interests without due process. Magnum also facially challenges specific Toledo Municipal Code provisions under the Due Process Clause and Ohio preemption doctrines.

Jurisdiction exists under 28 U.S.C. § 1331.
