1Opinion of the Court
JEFFREY W. BATES, Chief Judge.
Jerry Hardesty (“Hardesty”) appeals from an adverse judgment entered in a declaratory judgment action he brought against the City of Buffalo (“the City”) after he was removed as Chief of Police. In Hardesty’s lawsuit, he sought a judgment declaring that his removal from this appointed office was invalid because the City failed to comply with § 79.240. 1 The trial court concluded the City’s action was authorized by § 79.120, so Hardesty’s lawsuit was dismissed with prejudice. Har-desty challenges this ruling as erroneous. We affirm.
