Attorneys representing Renaldo Hernandez announced the claim in a press conference on Wednesday.
Hernandez said what happened to him during his arrest "was more than excessive force."
Attorney Neil Gehlawat, with Taylor & Ring Law Firm, claims Hernandez was pushed from behind by deputies for no apparent reason. Cellphone video captured the moments after, appearing to show Hernandez being punched multiple times before being taken to the ground.
Following the incident, Hernandez was booked into jail before being taken to the hospital for a brief evaluation. He then returned to jail.
Gehlawat said that while that was a relief, Hernandez still suffers from physical and emotional trauma from the incident.
Filing a government claim is the first step before suing a public agency. Stanislaus County has 45 days to respond. If it rejects or fails to act, Hernandez's attorneys plan to file a federal civil rights lawsuit in Sacramento.
We reached out to the Stanislaus County Sheriff's Office for comment. They say they are aware of the complaint but are not making any comments at this time.
