A judge will hear an Indianapolis cemetery’s bid Wednesday to dismiss a lawsuit filed by a relative of 1930s gangster John Dillinger who wants to exhume Dillinger’s gravesite to determine if the notorious criminal is actually buried there. A Marion County judge scheduled a hearing to consider Crown Hill Cemetery’s motion to dismiss the lawsuit Michael Thompson filed in August against the cemetery. Thompson, who is Dillinger’s nephew, is seeking a court order allowing him to proceed with the exhumation.
