County Settles Leopold Harassment Suit For $110,000. Anne Arundel County is ending a legal dispute resolving claims of sexual harassment and retaliation against former County Executive John Leopold. Karla Hamner has accepted the county’s offer of judgment and will receive $110,000. Attorney’s fees and court costs must still be determined. Hamner filed a complaint against the county in 2010 claiming discrimination, sexual harassment and retaliation. She had worked for Leopold and was then sent to the Police Department for another position, but was not hired there. She claimed Leopold ran the county through fear and intimidation.
