Regardless of the rights and wrongs of the situation he has the city by the balls. They'll settle rather than have to deal with this minefield in court.
Why the 6 hour gap between the incident and reporting it?
Was there any contact or indirect communication between the police and Degise prior to her making the report?
Was Amy driving on a suspended license as indicated by her ticket history?
Was her car actually impounded in Hoboken or did John Allen pull strings for her?

I am very much not a lawyer, but I don't see how any of this would make the city liable for $1 million in damages? Aside from the unanswered question of whether she communicated with police, these are all Degise problems not JC problems.

This should not be a city / tax payer issue. This should be 100% civil issue.
She was not in the act of preforming duties for the city nor on official city business. I don't think the city is liable here

Did it state that he's suing the City? If so, how?
You can't sue the city because a city employee who works at the water treatment plant hits you with their car, for example.
