That arrest was caught on camera in 2010 and the video sparked national outrage. Lawyers for Chad Holley say they wanted the city held accountable for what they called a systemic problem with HPD over untrained officers and unsupervised officers. The judge disagreed.

Holley's lawyers have not decided whether they will appeal the dismissal.
