Former Ventura County Executive Officer Mike Powers is suing the county, claiming he was forced him out of his job a year ago without the chance to defend himself against a harassment accusation from one of his employees. Powers filed suit Wednesday against the County of Ventura. He is seeking unspecified damages for invasion of privacy, wrongful termination, infliction of emotional distress and other claims. He is also asking the court to force the county to defend him in the lawsuit brought by his accuser and to pay the legal costs he's already incurred.
