The owner of Ginger the Pig requested an advisory jury to help hear the case as well as filed two separate motions to dismiss the case and strike information from the complaint against them. The City of Newton since May 10 has been in the process of seeking to remove a pot-bellied pig owned by Jessica D.Grigoreva. The City holding the pig is not allowed within the City by ordinance. During past public meetings, Grigoreva previously stressed the pig’s importance to her family and its service as an emotional support animal for her son. She said the family had had the pig for two years.
